It is required for publishing an app to the app store. Otherwise during
app store validation phase, you get an error:
Asset validation failed
Missing Info.plist value. A value for the Info.plist key
'CFBundleIconName' is missing in the bundle 'foo'. Apps built with
iOS 11 or later SDK must supply app icons in an asset catalog and must
also provide a value for this Info.plist key.
For more information see

Note this is not needed when using Xcode 14.3+ and when one places the
icons into an asset catalog. When processing icons in the asset
catalog, Xcode generates a partial Info.plist file that will contain
the CFBundleIconName key and will merge into the final Info.plist
file.
