UIDebuggingInformationOverlay for iOS 10 & 11

// In iOS 11, Apple added additional checks to disable this overlay unless the
// device is an internal device. To get around this, we swizzle out the
// -[UIDebuggingInformationOverlay init] method (which returns nil now if
// the device is non-internal), and we call:
// [[UIDebuggingInformationOverlayInvokeGestureHandler mainHandler] _handleActivationGesture:(UIGestureRecognizer *)]
// to show the window, since that now adds the debugging view controllers, and calls
// [overlay toggleVisibility] for us.
