'FIRHeartbeatsPayload' for instance message is a forward declaration

[sroze]

Description

On a Capacitor application, add the FirebaseMessaging pod causes the application to not build with the following errors:

Especially, we can see two types of errors:

• Receiver type 'FIRHeartbeatsPayload' for instance message is a forward declaration
• No visibile @interface for 'FHIRHeartbeatLogger' declares the selector [xxxx]

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

[sroze]

Note that using an older version as mentioned in #12891, it works well.

...

target 'App' do
  capacitor_pods

  pod 'FirebaseMessaging', '~> 8.0'
end

This issue may be better addressed on a Capacitor support channel.
