Description

Clang settings appear to be added to the wrong configuration list within the project.pbxproj file.

When trying to set CLANG_ANALYZER_LOCALIZABILITY_NONLOCALIZED to YES in order to silence a warning, Xcodegen adds them to the PBXNativeTarget build configuration list while changing the setting within Xcode applies it within the PBXProject build configuration list.

Is there a way to make sure that this setting gets applied to the correct configuration list?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the generated project.pbxproj output with CLANG_ANALYZER_LOCALIZABILITY_NONLOCALIZED set to YES, then compare its PBXNativeTarget and PBXProject build configuration lists with the configuration Xcode creates. Done means XcodeGen places this setting in the PBXProject build configuration list and the generated project matches Xcode's behavior.
