[iOS] Apps with UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend in info.plist failing to pass Apple Store validation
Last week (WWDC) Apple announced a new way to handle multitasking on iOS and iPadOS 13, so when you attempt to publish an App using the App Store Connect, you get a Warning saying that the Key "UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend" is going to be deprecated soon. So after ~September (which is when usually Apple releases the new versions), the Apps cannot contain that key anymore
To reproduce:
1. Open Unity and create a New Project
2. Set target iOS and Build
3. Create a new App or prepare an existing one to receive a release build on the App Store Connect
4. Build and Archive the iOS project
5. Submit the Build to the App Store Connect
6. Note that when the App Store Connect receives and analyses the Build it shows the Warning:
"ITMS-90339: Deprecated Info.plist Key - The Info.plist contains a key 'UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend' in bundle XXXXX [XXXXX.app] that will soon be unsupported. Remove the key, rebuild your app and resubmit."
Notes:
- Workaround: Remove setting from: iOS / Player Settings / Other Settings / Behavior in Background and "UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend" key from info.plist
Tested with:
- iPad Mini 4, iOS: 11.4.1 - Reproduced
- iPhone 8 Plus, iOS: 12.0 - Reproduced
- iPhone XR, iOS: 12.0 - Reproduced
Reproduced on Unity 2017.4.0f1, 2017.4.27f1, 2018.3.14f1, 2018.4.2f1, 2019.1.7f1, 2019.2.0b6 and 2019.3.0a6

In the work around it says to remove the "Behavior in Background" settings, but how it that possible? The options are Custom, Suspend and Exit. I'm using 2018.3.14
