The topic of supported iOS version came up in a docs PR recently [1]. I was 
surprised to find that we still  support iOS 8. I imagine if someone came along 
with an issue on iOS 8, we wouldn't bother fixing it.

In the Android docs, we say "As a general rule, Android versions become 
unsupported by Cordova as they dip below 5% on Google's distribution 
dashboard".[2] Should we adopt the same model for iOS? According to Apple[3], 
95% of users are on iOS 10 or 11. 

I suggest that the next major version of cordova-ios only supports iOS 10+, and 
that in future we continue to follow this 5% rule across all platforms to lower 
our maintenance burden.
