No. You do not submit source code.

Apple does not currently require LLVM bitcode for iOS. It does require it for Apple TV and Apple Watch.
Additionally, LLVM bitcode is not architecture agnostic. It would not solve the problem of going from x86 to ARM.

This was also used in Apple's transition from 32-bit to 64-bit on Mac. And later again on iOS.
So yes, if Apple were to transition CPU architectures again, fat binaries would be the likely approach.
