Steps to reproduce

Description:
I encountered an issue while building my Flutter app for iOS using permission_handler_apple version 9.4.5. The build fails due to multiple Parse Issues and Semantic Issues in PermissionManager.h and PermissionManager.m files.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add permission_handler: ^11.3.1 (or any compatible version) to your pubspec.yaml.
2. Run flutter pub get.
3. Attempt to build the project for iOS using flutter build ios or flutter run.
4. Observe the build failure with the errors listed below.

Expected results

The project should build successfully without any parse or semantic issues.

Actual results

Additional Notes:

• This issue seems to be related to an incorrect type declaration in PermissionManager.h and PermissionManager.m.
• I have tried cleaning the project (flutter clean and pod install --repo-update), but the issue persists.
• If there are any workarounds or fixes, please let me know.
