Description
I have a nativescript project that integrates with Firebase. To debug analytics in iOS, Google has this vague documentation:
To enable Analytics Debug mode on your development device, specify the following command line argument in Xcode :
-FIRDebugEnabled
What this actually wants you to do is open the project in Xcode and navigate to Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme..., then select Run on the left, pick the Arguments tab, and add -FIRDebugEnabled to the list of Arguments Passed on Launch.
Problem is I'm not using Xcode, I'm just working in VS Code and using a terminal. So...how do I pass this argument myself, through tns debug ios or something?

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start with the tns debug ios entry point and inspect how command-line arguments are parsed and forwarded to the iOS app. Done means establishing a terminal-based way to pass -FIRDebugEnabled, with the behavior documented or covered by an appropriate test.
