Custom configuration names rejected in settings.configs and scheme definitions #1621

When a project defines custom build configuration names (anything other than Debug or Release), XcodeGen rejects those names in two places:

1. settings.configs keys in target definitions
2. run.config, test.config, archive.config, profile.config values in scheme definitions

The validator appears to check against a hardcoded list of known configuration names rather than against the configurations actually defined in the project spec.

Reproduction

name: TestApp

configurations:
  Debug: debug
  Enterprise: release
  AppStore: release

targets:
  TestApp:
    type: application
    platform: iOS
    settings:
      configs:
        Enterprise:           # ← rejected: "invalid build configuration 'Enterprise'"
          SWIFT_VERSION: "5.0"

schemes:
  Enterprise:
    archive:
      config: Enterprise      # ← rejected: "Scheme has invalid build configuration 'Enterprise'"

Running xcodegen generate on this spec produces:

Spec validations errors:
  - Build setting has invalid build configuration "Enterprise"
  - Scheme "Enterprise" has invalid build configuration "Enterprise"

Expected Behaviour

Enterprise and AppStore are defined in the configurations: section of the spec. The validator should accept any configuration name declared there, not just Debug and Release.

Actual Behaviour

Any configuration name other than Debug or Release is rejected in settings.configs and scheme config fields, even when explicitly defined in the project spec.

Workaround

For build settings, there is a partial workaround using conditional key syntax in settings.base:

settings:
  base:
    "SWIFT_VERSION[config=Enterprise]": "5.0"

There is no equivalent workaround for scheme definitions. Schemes that reference custom configuration names cannot be expressed in project.yml at all, requiring scheme files to be managed outside the spec.

Versions Affected

Confirmed present in: 2.15.0, 2.20.0, 2.25.0, 2.30.0, 2.35.0, 2.38.0, 2.40.0, 2.42.0, 2.43.0, 2.45.4

This appears to have been present since at least v2.15.0 and has never been reported.

Impact

Projects that follow the common iOS pattern of having more than two build configurations (e.g. Debug, Enterprise, AppStore, DeveloperID) cannot define schemes in project.yml. This makes full XcodeGen adoption impractical for these projects without workarounds.
