HideKeyboard() fails on iOS – WebDriverAgent unable to dismiss keyboard

[Giteshkongre]

Describe the bug
Calling HideKeyboard() during iOS automation fails with a WebDriverAgent error stating that it does not know how to dismiss the keyboard.
This occurs even when the keyboard is clearly visible on the screen and blocks further interactions.
The issue is observed while running tests using Appium Device Farm with iOS real devices.
