Possible solution here: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/issues/20741#issuecomment-1280687500

We are looking at adding a fix to our step but you might need to use this fix yourself if you are using fastlane.

Make sure to use Envman to set the env var

eg.

envman add --key ITMSTRANSPORTER_FORCE_ITMS_PACKAGE_UPLOAD --value 'true'

========
UPDATE Dec 20 2022

This workaround may no longer be required.

Bitrise has patched our steps

See: The package is missing an Info.plist or the CFBundlePackageType

However it is unknown if Fastlane have patched theirs and this seems to suggest the opposite now for some reason
