This patch adds a default shader warm up process which moves shader compilation from the animation time to the startup time. This also provides an extension for `runApp` so developers can customize the warm up process.
This should reduce our worst_frame_rasterizer_time_millis from ~100ms to ~20-30ms for both flutter_gallery and complex_layout benchmarks. Besides, this should also have a significant improvement on 90th and 99th percentile time (50%-100% speedup in some cases, but I haven't tested them thoroughly; I'll let our device lab collect the data afterwards).
The tradeoff the is the startup time (time to first frame). Our `flutter run --profile --trace-startup` seems to be a little noisy and I see about 100ms-200ms increase in that measurement for complex_layout and flutter_gallery. Note that this only happens on the first run after install or data wipe. Later the Skia persistent cache will remove the overhead.
This also adds a cubic_bezier benchmark to test the custom shader warm up process.
This should fix https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/813 (either by `defaultShaderWarmUp`, or a `customShaderWarmUp`).
* Fix TODO syntax.
* Clarify messages for some timeouts, to aid debugging.
* Increase some other timeouts that were a needlessly short, to reduce sources of flakes.
* Remove some more timeouts that were mostly redundant, to remove complexity.
* Minor style cleanup.
* Remove some dangerous traps (specifically, hide the explicit start/end times in TimedEvent since they shouldn't matter).
All temporary directory start with `flutter_` and have their random component separated from the name by a period, as in `flutter_test_bundle.YFYQMY`.
I've tried to find some of the places where we didn't cleanly delete temporary directories, too. This greatly reduces, though it does not entirely eliminate, the directories we leave behind when running tests, especially `flutter_tools` tests.
While I was at it I standardized on `tempDir` as the variable name for temporary directories, since it was the most common, removing occurrences of `temp` and `tmp`, among others.
Also I factored out some common code that used to catch exceptions that happen on Windows, and made more places use that pattern.
fuchsia_tester.dart still assumes Dart 1. Previously, it ran tests directly
from source, flutter_platform.dart automatically runs a kernel compile when
operating in Dart 2 mode, but this assumes a functional Dart SDK is available
in the artifacts directly, and fuchsia_tester.dart mocks out the artifacts
directory with an empty temp dir.
Remaining work is:
1. Get the frontend server building as a dependency on Fuchsia.
2. Patch fuchsia_tester.dart to use a valid Dart SDK and frontend server.
This also reverts migration to Dart 2 typedef syntax.

* It's time to #deleteDart1 (#18293)
Eliminates support for Dart 1 in flutter_tools, and drops our Dart 1
benchmarks. All commands now run in Dart 1 mode only.
Eliminates --preview-dart-2 / --no-preview-dart-2 support.
* Fix indentation, remove no longer necessary .toList()
* Only push udpated kernel if >0 invalidated srcs
Eliminates support for Dart 1 in flutter_tools, and drops our Dart 1
benchmarks. All commands now run in Dart 1 mode only.
Eliminates --preview-dart-2 / --no-preview-dart-2 support.
* With dart being default, move preview_dart_2 tests to dart1.
* Swap out defaults for preview-dart-2 option in tests. Make dart1 explicit
* Move suffix around
* Rename files
* Roll engine to b6df7a637498ca9beda1fa9cd7210e3202ea599f.

```
* first round fastlane working on Android
* clean up and start ios
* Partial iOS
* Got a fastfile that works on iOS
* Finalize Android push instructions
* Finalize instructions for iOS
* Extra cleanup and optipng
* Disable readme autogen and add a default readme
* Change some of the dev/devicelab tests to support testing against local engine.
We can already configure flutter tools to use local engine by setting
FLUTTER_ENGINE environment variable. However when this variable is set
this also requires setting --local-engine to specify which flavor of
engine to use.
This change changes tests in dev/devicelab to pass a sensible default for
--local-engine, e.g. when testing hot reload on Android we pass android_debug
and when testing release AOT build for IOS we pass ios_release.
* Fix analysis issues
* Update utils.dart
This fills out the following matrix:
App: `flutter create` default app, Complex Layout, and Gallery.
Platforms: Linux/Android, Mac/iOS, Windows/Android
Build modes: full release, aot blobs, debug
Dart: normal, 2.0 preview
It also renames all the tests that used "build" to mean compilation
build to use "compile" instead, so that it's much clearer on the
dashboard.
Also, mark some flaky tests that are no longer flaky as not flaky.
Also, remove uses of call() since that's probably going to go away at
some point.
Eliminates Gallery-specific hardcoding of app package and activity name
in the test.
Fixes breakage introduced with 1dc2d4eb43
due to main activity class now being MainActivity.
This remove a very brittle aspect of flutter drive, whereby it would
assume a known port instead of explicitly finding out what it was.
Fixes#7692 and hopefully fixes the devicelab tests.
