Description

After installing a runtime:

sudo xcodes runtimes install "iOS 13.7"

The runtime is then not there:

xcrun simctl list

== Runtimes ==
iOS 17.0 (17.0 - 21A5248u) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-0
tvOS 17.0 (17.0 - 21J5273p) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.tvOS-17-0
watchOS 10.0 (10.0 - 21R5275s) - com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.watchOS-10-0

Research direction

Start with the runtimes install command and reproduce the Xcode 15 case using the commands in the report, then inspect how the installed runtime is registered with CoreSimulator. Done means the requested iOS 13.7 runtime appears in xcrun simctl list after installation.
