What happened?

XCode 15 + iOS app (min target iOS 15) + watchOS app (min target watchOS 9).
WhatsNewKit as SPM dependency for the iOS app.

Problem: when previewing SwiftUI views for the watch app, I get this error:

`
== PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR:

SchemeBuildError: Failed to build the scheme ”MyAppWatch Watch App”

'SymbolRenderingMode' is only available in watchOS 8.0 or newer

Emitting module for WhatsNewKit:
/Users/user/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-gglszqrqhbbrmqcgpkravwysjmar/SourcePackages/checkouts/WhatsNewKit/Sources/Models/WhatsNew+Feature+Image.swift:110:31: error: 'SymbolRenderingMode' is only available in watchOS 8.0 or newer
        symboldRenderingMode: SymbolRenderingMode?,`

What are the steps to reproduce?

What is the expected behavior?

Do not block SwiftUI previews
