The entitlements xtool signs with were never checked against the profile created for the app, so any difference became an opaque 0xe8008015 when installing. - aps-environment is taken from the profile: a development profile only allows 'development', whatever the app was built with. - Entitlements the profile does not grant (notably App Groups with an App Store Connect API key, which cannot manage them) now fail early with a message naming them and, for groups, how to fix it. Entitlements xtool does not provision are left untouched.
The CLI interpolates errors, which ignores LocalizedError and showed the raw enum case. Conform to CustomStringConvertible as well.
Re-signing an IPA that was signed for distribution kept beta-reports-active, which a development profile does not grant, so installd rejected the app. Remove it (and the iCloud container environment, same kind) when the profile lacks it, with a warning.

- Line 43: Update `EntitlementsReconciler` so
`com.apple.developer.icloud-container-environment` is not treated as
distribution-only and is included among recognized provisionable keys when
building `knownKeys`. Ensure `reconcile` reports a missing profile grant rather
than removing the requested environment, and add a regression test for that
case.

Stop dropping com.apple.developer.icloud-container-environment silently: it selects the CloudKit database, so a profile that does not grant it, or not the requested value, is now reported. beta-reports-active is still dropped. A profile may list several values, so a plain string request is checked against the granted list.

Reconciles the entitlements xtool signs with against the provisioning profile it just fetched or created, during development signing (
xtool dev,xtool install). Until now nothing compared the two, so every mismatch became the opaque install errorEntitlementsReconciler.reconcileruns inDeveloperServicesAddAppOperation.addAppright after the profile is fetched, once per bundle (app and extensions):aps-environmentis taken from the profile. An app built for distribution declaresproduction, while a development profile only grantsdevelopment.DeveloperServicesAssignAppGroupsOperationis skipped (it only exists for Apple ID auth), the profile hasapplication-groups = [], and the groups used to stay in the signature. The message suggestsxtool auth login --mode passwordor removing the entitlement.

Besides my review, the change was validated by running it (tests, real builds, device installs and App Store Connect uploads where stated above). I will answer review questions myself.
