SDL2_ttf fix for using on iOS platform

Linking to SDL2_ttf in an application fails -- said app dumps the terminal usage text of the apinames utility and then immediately exits. 

This is because of external/freetype/apinames.c being compiled into SDL2_ttf. Removing this file from compiling within the supplied iOS xcode project file fixes the problem for me.

Cheers!

confirmed in 2.0.12 and in mercurial.

A fix is straightforward and takes only few seconds, just remove apinames.c from the project.
