Generates a Property Sheet for Windows builds containing link and include path
information for any included plugins. This allows automating part of the process
of integrating plugins into the build that is currently manual.
To support this change, refactored msbuild_utils into a PropertySheet class so that
it can be used to make different property sheets.
This makes ephemeral symlinks to each plugin, for use by build systems.
This is similar to the logic implemented in the Podfile on iOS and
macOS, but managed internally to the Flutter tool.
Exploration for addressing #32719 and #32720

Moves the checks that projects have been configured for desktop to a lower level, where they will cover more codepaths (e.g., 'run'), and improves them to check for native build projects, rather than just directories, to catch cases where the directory exists (e.g., due to accidental creation of generated files).
Also adds links to the error messages pointing to instructions on adding desktop support to a project.
Fixes#47145
* Update project.pbxproj files to say Flutter rather than Chromium
Also, the templates now have an empty organization so that we don't cause people to give their apps a Flutter copyright.
* Update the copyright notice checker to require a standard notice on all files
* Update copyrights on Dart files. (This was a mechanical commit.)
* Fix weird license headers on Dart files that deviate from our conventions; relicense Shrine.
Some were already marked "The Flutter Authors", not clear why. Their
dates have been normalized. Some were missing the blank line after the
license. Some were randomly different in trivial ways for no apparent
reason (e.g. missing the trailing period).
* Clean up the copyrights in non-Dart files. (Manual edits.)
Also, make sure templates don't have copyrights.
* Fix some more ORGANIZATIONNAMEs
Moves files generated in windows/flutter/ as part of the build to an ephemeral/ subdirectory, matching the approach used on macOS (and in the future, Windows).
Adds that directory to the generated properties file to minimize hard-coding of paths in the project.
Fix some places where Debug/Release was treated as a binary switch.
Makes similar changes to Windows and Linux to simplify adding profile
support to those platforms in the future. This means `--profile` builds
will fail on Linux and Windows for now, but that's fine since they
aren't actually supported, and unlike `--release` don't provide useful
functionality at the native code level.
Also fixes 'stopApp' always using Debug on macOS, to avoid showing an
error when running Profile (or Release).
Fixes#33203
When building in profile or release mode on desktop, add a prominent
warning that it's actually a debug build. This is to help address issues
with people being unaware of the current state of builds due to
following third-party guides rather than official documentation.
macOS is not included since PRs are in flight for macOS release support.
Moves the logic for finding vcvars64.bat to a new VisualStudio class
that encapsulates finding, and providing information about, VisualStudio
installations. Adds a validator for it, and runs it for Windows
workflows in doctor.
Rather than hard-coding a set of locations to check, use vswhere (which
is installed by VS 2017 and later), and construct the vcvars64.bat path
relative to that. This will allow Windows builds to work without special
configuration for people who have VS installed at a custom path.
Also adds error logging with different messages for each failure point,
so that rather than the not-very-informative 'failed to find
vcvars64.bat' message, the failure will provide feedback about what to
do.
This is an interim solution; later this will be replaced by a
VisualStudio class with associated validator to match the structure of
the other toolchains.
Fixes#33249
Invoking msbuild with runInShell makes handling path escaping more
error-prone, and substantially increases the chances of running into
maximum path limits. This replaces the direct call with a .bat wrapper
that calls vsvars64.bat then msbuild, and uses relative paths within the
script to keep command lengths short.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/32792
Allows Windows builds to use the same structure and script as Linux
builds now use, calling into tool_backend to manage copying resources to
the project directory and building the bundle.
Also switches from expecting name_update.bat to expecting flutter\exe_filename
to be written during the build, as with the recent changes to the macOS build, to
reduce the amount of boilerplate needed in a windows\ project directory.
Eliminates the need for a build.bat in the Windows build workflow, adding
preliminary support for building using msbuild. The handling of
vcvars64.bat may be refined in the future, but this serves as a starting point.
