Resolves#128046.
Adds a services API that allows flutter app developers to write app code that determines `--flavor` the app was built with.
This is implemented by having the tool adding the value of `--flavor` to its list of dart environment declarations, which will be available to the app at run time. Specifically,`FLUTTER_APP_FLAVOR` is set. I chose this implementation for its simplicity. There is some precedent for this, but only for web ([example](cd2f3f5e78/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/runner/flutter_command.dart (L1231))).
This PR fixes yet another case in the windows startup test that violates the render rule, which caused https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/45300 to be reverted.
Although the `FlutterView.render` call is within `onBeginFrame`, there is an `await` before the call, causing the call to fall out of the synchronous scope.
I've added this problem to the documentation of `FlutterView.render` in https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/45555.
This should fix https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/134636.
The column can get really tall, especially when there's line wrapping. This is the layout on a tablet, so on a motor g4 this column is likely going to overflow.

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.
For more info see:
* https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/129757
### 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.
This enables our various date picker classes to have a null `initialDate`.
It also fixes the logic of some of the widgets which used to do something when you _changed_ the `initial*` parameters, which is wrong for `initial*` properties (they by definition should only impact the initial state) and wrong for properties in general (behaviour should not change based on whether the widget was built with a new value or not, that violates the reactive design principles).
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/638.
* Pulled `FinderBase` out of `Finder`
* `FinderBase` can be used for any object, not just elements
* Terminology was updated to be more "find" related
* Re-implemented `Finder` using `FinderBase<Element>`
* Backwards compatibility maintained with `_LegacyFinderMixin`
* Introduced base classes for SemanticsNode finders
* Introduced basic SemanticsNode finders through `find.semantics`
* Updated some relevant matchers to make use of the more generic `FinderBase`
Closes#123634Closes#115874
Implement expected functionalities when supplying `--web-launch-url` and/or `--web-hostname` arguments to `flutter drive`.
- `--web-launch-url` now sets the starting url for the (headless) browser
- Which for example means you can start at a certain part of the app at the start of your integration test
- `--web-hostname` now sets the hostname where the target of flutter drive will be hosted
- Which allows you to set something other than localhost (allowing access via a reverse-proxy for example)
Fixes#118028

I did a tiny bit of minor cleanup but didn't want to go 🍔 beyond the
scope of this change. After it lands I'll update the Wiki.
## Before
```bash
$ fl run \
--local-engine-src-path=$ENGINE \
--local-engine=android_debug_unopt_arm64
```
... would try to use `host_debug_unopt` (i.e. Rosetta).
## After
```bash
$ fl run \
--local-engine-src-path=$ENGINE \
--local-engine=android_debug_unopt_arm64 \
--local-engine-host=host_debug_unopt_arm64
```
... uses `host_debug_unopt_arm64`, as specified.

Migrate tests in flutter/flutter. Once the tests here and in `*_customer_testing` are migrated, the default value of the migration flag will be changed from false to true, making the rounding hack disabled by default.
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.
<img width="200" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/389558/217918109-945febaa-9086-41cc-a476-1a189c7831d8.gif" />
### 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.

A widget was added to explicitly and intentionally overlap the
PlatformView so that the rendering tree of Views would always have an
underlay and an overlay to match the test expectations.
Deprecate `textScaleFactor` in favor of `textScaler`, in preparation for Android 14 [Non-linear font scaling to 200%](https://developer.android.com/about/versions/14/features#non-linear-font-scaling). The `TextScaler` class can be moved to `dart:ui` in the future, if we decide to use the Android platform API or AndroidX to get the scaling curve instead of hard coding the curve in the framework.
I haven't put the Flutter version in the deprecation message so the analyzer checks are failing. Will do so after I finish the migration guide.
**Why `TextScaler.textScaleFactor`**
The author of a `TextScaler` subclass should provide a fallback `textScaleFactor`. By making `TextScaler` also contain the `textScaleFactor` information it also makes it easier to migrate: if a widget overrides `MediaQueryData.textScaler` in the tree, for unmigrated widgets in the subtree it would also have to override `MediaQueryData.textScaleFactor`, and that makes it difficult to remove `MediaQueryData.textScaleFactor` in the future.
## A full list of affected APIs in this PR
Deprecated: The method/getter/setter/argument is annotated with a `@Deprecated()` annotation in this PR, and the caller should replace it with `textScaler` instead. Unless otherwise specified there will be a Flutter fix available to help with migration but it's still recommended to migrate case-by-case.
**Replaced**: The method this `textScaleFactor` argument belongs to is rarely called directly by user code and is not overridden by any of the registered custom tests, so the argument is directly replaced by `TextScaler`.
**To Be Deprecated**: The method/getter/setter/argument can't be deprecated in this PR because a registered customer test depends on it and a Flutter fix isn't available (or the test was run without applying flutter fixes first). This method/getter/setter/argument will be deprecated in a followup PR once the registered test is migrated.

A lot of material widgets (`Slider`, `RangeSlider`, `TimePicker`, and different types of buttons) also change their layout based on `textScaleFactor`. These need to be handled in a case-by-case fashion and will be migrated in follow-up PRs.
This change enables Flutter to generate multiple Scenes to be rendered into separate FlutterViews from a single widget tree. Each Scene is described by a separate render tree, which are all associated with the single widget tree.
This PR implements the framework-side mechanisms to describe the content to be rendered into multiple views. Separate engine-side changes are necessary to provide these views to the framework and to draw the framework-generated Scene into them.
## Summary of changes
The details of this change are described in [flutter.dev/go/multiple-views](https://flutter.dev/go/multiple-views). Below is a high-level summary organized by layers.
### Rendering layer changes
* The `RendererBinding` no longer owns a single `renderView`. In fact, it doesn't OWN any `RenderView`s at all anymore. Instead, it offers an API (`addRenderView`/`removeRenderView`) to add and remove `RenderView`s that then will be MANAGED by the binding. The `RenderView` itself is now owned by a higher-level abstraction (e.g. the `RawView` Element of the widgets layer, see below), who is also in charge of adding it to the binding. When added, the binding will interact with the `RenderView` to produce a frame (e.g. by calling `compositeFrame` on it) and to perform hit tests for incoming pointer events. Multiple `RenderView`s can be added to the binding (typically one per `FlutterView`) to produce multiple Scenes.
* Instead of owning a single `pipelineOwner`, the `RendererBinding` now owns the root of the `PipelineOwner` tree (exposed as `rootPipelineOwner` on the binding). Each `PipelineOwner` in that tree (except for the root) typically manages its own render tree typically rooted in one of the `RenderView`s mentioned in the previous bullet. During frame production, the binding will instruct each `PipelineOwner` of that tree to flush layout, paint, semantics etc. A higher-level abstraction (e.g. the widgets layer, see below) is in charge of adding `PipelineOwner`s to this tree.
* Backwards compatibility: The old `renderView` and `pipelineOwner` properties of the `RendererBinding` are retained, but marked as deprecated. Care has been taken to keep their original behavior for the deprecation period, i.e. if you just call `runApp`, the render tree bootstrapped by this call is rooted in the deprecated `RendererBinding.renderView` and managed by the deprecated `RendererBinding.pipelineOwner`.
### Widgets layer changes
* The `WidgetsBinding` no longer attaches the widget tree to an existing render tree. Instead, it bootstraps a stand-alone widget tree that is not backed by a render tree. For this, `RenderObjectToWidgetAdapter` has been replaced by `RootWidget`.
* Multiple render trees can be bootstrapped and attached to the widget tree with the help of the `View` widget, which internally is backed by a `RawView` widget. Configured with a `FlutterView` to render into, the `RawView` creates a new `PipelineOwner` and a new `RenderView` for the new render tree. It adds the new `RenderView` to the `RendererBinding` and its `PipelineOwner` to the pipeline owner tree.
* The `View` widget can only appear in certain well-defined locations in the widget tree since it bootstraps a new render tree and does not insert a `RenderObject` into an ancestor. However, almost all Elements expect that their children insert `RenderObject`s, otherwise they will not function properly. To produce a good error message when the `View` widget is used in an illegal location, the `debugMustInsertRenderObjectIntoSlot` method has been added to Element, where a child can ask whether a given slot must insert a RenderObject into its ancestor or not. In practice, the `View` widget can be used as a child of the `RootWidget`, inside the `view` slot of the `ViewAnchor` (see below) and inside a `ViewCollection` (see below). In those locations, the `View` widget may be wrapped in other non-RenderObjectWidgets (e.g. InheritedWidgets).
* The new `ViewAnchor` can be used to create a side-view inside a parent `View`. The `child` of the `ViewAnchor` widget renders into the parent `View` as usual, but the `view` slot can take on another `View` widget, which has access to all inherited widgets above the `ViewAnchor`. Metaphorically speaking, the view is anchored to the location of the `ViewAnchor` in the widget tree.
* The new `ViewCollection` widget allows for multiple sibling views as it takes a list of `View`s as children. It can be used in all the places that accept a `View` widget.
## Google3
As of July 5, 2023 this change passed a TAP global presubmit (TGP) in google3: tap/OCL:544707016:BASE:545809771:1688597935864:e43dd651
## Note to reviewers
This change is big (sorry). I suggest focusing the initial review on the changes inside of `packages/flutter` first. The majority of the changes describe above are implemented in (listed in suggested review order):
* `rendering/binding.dart`
* `widgets/binding.dart`
* `widgets/view.dart`
* `widgets/framework.dart`
All other changes included in the PR are basically the fallout of what's implemented in those files. Also note that a lot of the lines added in this PR are documentation and tests.
I am also very happy to walk reviewers through the code in person or via video call, if that is helpful.
I appreciate any feedback.
