**TLDR:** Move the changelog, currently called ["hotfixes to the stable
channel"](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/docs/releases/Hotfixes-to-the-Stable-Channel.md),
to the root directory of Flutter/Flutter and rename it to CHANGELOG.md
before the Q3 release cutoff.
This PR accomplishes the following:
1. Renames 'Hotfixes-to-the-stable-channel' to CHANGELOG.md
2. Moves CHANGELOG.md to Flutter/Flutter root.
3. Update references to 'Hotfixes-to-the-stable-channel' to
CHANGELOG.md.

#### Background
Flutter has historically kept documentation on wiki pages in the Flutter
repository. Recently, we executed a large-scale migration of our wiki
into a `docs` folder within flutter/flutter.
#### Proposal
I propose relocating the current changelog, which is called ["hotfixes
to the stable
channel"](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/docs/releases/Hotfixes-to-the-Stable-Channel.md),
to the root directory of the Flutter/Flutter repository and renaming it
to CHANGELOG.md. This change aims to improve the visibility,
accessibility, and consistency of our documentation processes.
#### Benefits
1. **Unify Dart and Flutter Processes:** This move aligns Flutter’s
changelog management with Dart's practices. As the release manager for
both Dart and Flutter, this unification will streamline the processes
and ensure consistency across projects.
#### Timeline
I would like this proposal **approved or denied before the Q3 release
cutoff** so it may be available within the stable branch.
---
> [!NOTE]
> This proposal aims to improve our workflow and documentation
standards. I am open to feedback and further discussion on how we can
best implement this change.
Removes these two discontinued plugins from `dev/integration_tests/flutter_gallery`
[`device_info`](https://pub.dev/packages/device_info):
Apparently the video playback doesn't work on iOS simulators (I wasn't able to verify this, as I don't have an iOS simulator installed). I removed the guard against running on those simulators, and replaced with a note in the README.
[`connectivity`](https://pub.dev/packages/connectivity):
This plugin was used to play the bee video from the network. I changed the demo so that the bee video is instead also played from an asset (like its friend the butterfly), and then removed the use of the plugin.
Unblocks the re-land of https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/53462 (itself a reland ð), because of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/150465#issuecomment-2181403712.
Unpin `archive` version and run `flutter update-packages --force-upgrade` to show there are no additional dependencies pulled in (url_launcher was updated, but unrelated).

The past 7 months have been quite the journeyâI made some huge blunders and some huge accomplishmentsâa very fun time overall.
I really appreciate the people who took the time to perform code review for my refactoring shenanigans: **christopherfujino**, **andrewkolos**, **LongCatIsLooong**, **gspencergoog**, **loic-sharma**, **Piinks**, **bernaferrari**, **bartekpacia**, **bleroux**, **kevmoo**, **rakudrama**, **XilaiZhang**, **QuncCccccc**, **MominRaza**, and **victorsanni**.
And a huge shoutout to 2 individuals:
- @justinmc, for offering to sponsor me for commit access (words could not describe my excitement)
- @goderbauer, for being super duper proactive and consistent with code review

This pull request makes 13 "switch statements â switch expressions" PRs in total, reducing the LOC in this repo by **1,974**!
From now on, I'll make sure to request a test exemption for each refactoring PR ð
This PR is step 12 in the journey to solve issue #136139 and make the
entire Flutter repo more readable.
Most of it involves implementing switch expressions, and there's also a
few other random things that I wanted to clean up a bit.
DDS was temporarily pinned to 4.1.0 because 4.2.0 triggered some test
failures (see https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/147250). Those
failures should be fixed by vm_service 14.2.2, so this unpins DDS and
rolls both of these packages (along with devtools_shared, which is a DDS
dependency).
(If the bot updates vm_service before this is done, I can rebase over
that will reduce the size of this PR to just a few files)
## Description
This introduces a list of packages that we will explicitly not pin. It is to be used for things where the package isn't actually published, but is a transitive dependency of another package included in the SDK. This happens with the `macros` package, for instance, which depends on the private, unpublished, `_macros` package where the SDK does some tricky things to depend on it (it depends on "any", but ships it as part of the SDK).
Also ran `flutter update-packages --force-update` to update all of the pubspec files.
## Related Issues
- Fixes#147656
## Tests
- Added a test that makes sure that explicitly unpinned packages don't show up in the pinned list.
- added language for all code blocks
- replaced `bash` or `shell` with `sh` for consistency.
- added `sh` and `console` in the GitHub template link generator.
- updated test for GitHub template.
