Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on MacOS and iOS. This enables bundling native code without any build-system boilerplate code.

### Implementation details for MacOS and iOS.
Dylibs are bundled by (1) making them fat binaries if multiple architectures are targeted, (2) code signing these, and (3) copying them to the frameworks folder. These steps are done manual rather than via CocoaPods. CocoaPods would have done the same steps, but (a) needs the dylibs to be there before the `xcodebuild` invocation (we could trick it, by having a minimal dylib in the place and replace it during the build process, that works), and (b) can't deal with having no dylibs to be bundled (we'd have to bundle a dummy dylib or include some dummy C code in the build file).
The dylibs are build as a new target inside flutter assemble, as that is the moment we know what build-mode and architecture to target.
The mapping from asset id to dylib-path is passed in to every kernel compilation path. The interesting case is hot-restart where the initial kernel file is compiled by the "inner" flutter assemble, while after hot restart the "outer" flutter run compiled kernel file is pushed to the device. Both kernel files need to contain the mapping. The "inner" flutter assemble gets its mapping from the NativeAssets target which builds the native assets. The "outer" flutter run get its mapping from a dry-run invocation. Since this hot restart can be used for multiple target devices (`flutter run -d all`) it contains the mapping for all known targets.
### Example vs template
The PR includes a new template that uses the new native assets in a package and has an app importing that. Separate discussion in: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/131209.
### Tests
This PR adds new tests to cover the various use cases.
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/native_assets_ios.dart
* Runs an example app with native assets in all build modes, doing hot reload and hot restart in debug mode.
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/native_assets_ios_simulator.dart
* Runs an example app with native assets, doing hot reload and hot restart.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/integration.shard/native_assets_test.dart
* Runs (incl hot reload/hot restart), builds, builds frameworks for iOS, MacOS and flutter-tester.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/build_system/targets/native_assets_test.dart
* Unit tests the new Target in the backend.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/ios/native_assets_test.dart
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/macos/native_assets_test.dart
* Unit tests the native assets being packaged on a iOS/MacOS build.
It also extends various existing tests:
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/module_test_ios.dart
* Exercises the add2app scenario.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/features_test.dart
* Unit test the new feature flag.
The `getIsolate` method returns the full list of libraries which can be huge for large apps. Using the more speficic API to only fetch what we need improves hot reload performance.

This reverts commit a19b3436ee.
We added this logging to try and determine if the reason for Dart VM errors (https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/121231) was caused by some issue with the streams.
A recent test proves that is not the case:
https://ci.chromium.org/ui/p/flutter/builders/prod/Mac_ios%20platform_view_ios__start_up/11046/overview
The test shows the Dart VM url in the device log. However, the test log does NOT show a log for the Dart VM url but does show the stack trace, which all come from the main stream, which means it's not an issue with the secondary streams not receiving the log.
So reverting the debugging we added.
Observatory can still be enabled by providing `--serve-observatory` or
invoking the `_serveObservatory` private service RPC via web socket or
HTTP.

You can now specify a --local-web-sdk flag to point to a wasm_release folder. This will make it so that only artifacts that pertain to the web sdk are overridden to point to the wasm_release folder. Other artifacts (such as impellerc) will pull from the cache, or from the --local-engine path if that is specified.
This also uses precompiled platform kernel files for both ddc and dart2js
* Dart2JS build step looks for compiled platform binaries.
* Use new locations of platform binaries.
* Added --local-web-sdk command line flag.
* Need to use the matching frontend server when doing ddc stuff.
* Update packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/test/web_test_compiler.dart

This PR adds extra timings for a hot reload.
As an example, before a user might see
> Performing hot reload...
> Reloaded 1 of 788 libraries in 554ms.
With this PR it would instead be something like
> Performing hot reload...
> Reloaded 1 of 788 libraries in 554ms (compile: 33 ms, reload: 153 ms, reassemble: 310 ms).
