Description
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a new iOS project via `dotnet new ios`
2. Add the following property to the .csproj: `What's Up`
3. Run `dotnet build`
### Expected Behavior
The app builds successfully.
### Actual Behavior
The build fails with an error:
`/usr/local/share/dotnet/packs/Microsoft.iOS.Sdk/17.0.8490/tools/msbuild/iOS/Xamarin.Shared.targets(2702,3): error MSB4096: The item "@(_WatchAppPostProcessingItems -> 'What's Up.app/Watch/%(Identity)')" in item list "_PostProcessingItem" does not define a value for metadata "DSymName". In order to use this metadata, either qualify it by specifying %(_PostProcessingItem.DSymName), or ensure that all items in this list define a value for this metadata.`
I've seen different errors depending on the project setup, which all seem to stem from the build tool not escaping single quotes.
Changing the AssemblyName to "Whats Up" results in a successful build.
