This PR implements the functionality described above and hides it behind
the `--experimental-faster-testing` flag of `flutter test`.
### The following are some performance measurements from test runs
conducted on GitHub Actions

Note that in reality, `test/material` was not passed to `flutter test`
in the trials below. All of the test files under `test/material` except
for `test/material/icons_test.dart` were listed out individually

Even if pub does not change the packge_config contents, it will still update a timestamp in one of the fields. This causes unnecessary rebuilds. To fix this, generate an additional file when running pub get that only contains the relevant fields and then update the KernelSnapshot rule to depend on it only.
