This PR aims to support Android's predictive back gesture when popping the entire Flutter app. Predictive route transitions between routes inside of a Flutter app will come later.

### Trying it out
If you want to try this feature yourself, here are the necessary steps:
1. Run Android 33 or above.
1. Enable the feature flag for predictive back on the device under "Developer
options".
1. Create a Flutter project, or clone [my example project](https://github.com/justinmc/flutter_predictive_back_examples).
1. Set `android:enableOnBackInvokedCallback="true"` in
android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml (already done in the example project).
1. Check out this branch.
1. Run the app. Perform a back gesture (swipe from the left side of the
screen).
You should see the predictive back animation like in the animation above and be able to commit or cancel it.
### go_router support
go_router works with predictive back out of the box because it uses a Navigator internally that dispatches NavigationNotifications!
~~go_router can be supported by adding a listener to the router and updating SystemNavigator.setFrameworkHandlesBack.~~
Similar to with nested Navigators, nested go_routers is supported by using a PopScope widget.

### Adds ScrollController.onAttach and ScrollController.onDetach
This resolves a long held pain point for developers. When using a scroll controller, there is not scroll position until the scrollable widget is built, and almost all methods of notification are only triggered when scrolling happens. Adding these two methods will help developers gain access to the scroll position when it is created. A common workaround for this was using a post frame callback to access controller.position after the first frame, but this is ripe for issues such as having multiple positions attached to the controller, or the scrollable no longer existing after that post frame callback. I think this can also be helpful for folks to debug cases when the scroll controller has multiple positions attached.
In particular, this also resolves this commented case: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/20819#issuecomment-417784218
The isScrollingNotifier is hard for developers to access.
### Docs & samples
I was surprised we did not have samples on scroll notification or scroll controller, so I overhauled it and added a lot of docs on all the different ways to access scrolling information, when it is available and how they differ.
