This PR adds initial support for Swift Package Manager (SPM). Users must opt in. Only compatible with Xcode 15+.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/146369.
## Included Features
This PR includes the following features:
* Enabling SPM via config
`flutter config --enable-swift-package-manager`
* Disabling SPM via config (will disable for all projects)
`flutter config --no-enable-swift-package-manager`
* Disabling SPM via pubspec.yaml (will disable for the specific project)
```
flutter:
disable-swift-package-manager: true
```
* Migrating existing apps to add SPM integration if using a Flutter plugin with a Package.swift
* Generates a Swift Package (named `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage`) that handles Flutter SPM-compatible plugin dependencies. Generated package is added to the Xcode project.
* Error parsing of common errors that may occur due to using CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager together
* Tool will print warnings when using all Swift Package plugins and encourage you to remove CocoaPods
This PR also converts `integration_test` and `integration_test_macos` plugins to be both Swift Packages and CocoaPod Pods.
## How it Works
The Flutter CLI will generate a Swift Package called `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage`, which will have local dependencies on all Swift Package compatible Flutter plugins.
The `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage` package will be added to the Xcode project via altering of the `project.pbxproj`.
In addition, a "Pre-action" script will be added via altering of the `Runner.xcscheme`. This script will invoke the flutter tool to copy the Flutter/FlutterMacOS framework to the `BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR` directory before the build starts. This is needed because plugins need to be linked to the Flutter framework and fortunately Swift Package Manager automatically uses `BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR` as a framework search path.
CocoaPods will continue to run and be used to support non-Swift Package compatible Flutter plugins.
## Not Included Features
It does not include the following (will be added in future PRs):
* Create plugin template
* Create app template
* Add-to-App integration
Convert `ProjectMigration.run()` and `ProjectMigrator.migrate()` to be async.
Needed for Swift Package Manager migration, which requires some async processes: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/146256
Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on Windows. 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 Windows.
Mainly follows the design of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/134031.
Specifically for Windows in this PR is the logic for finding the compiler `cl.exe` and environment variables that contain the paths to the Windows headers `vcvars.bat` based on `vswhere.exe`.
Reland of #134031. (Reverted in #135069.) Contains the fix for b/301051367 together with cl/567233346.
Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on Linux. 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 Linux.
Mainly follows the design of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/130494.
Some differences are:
* Linux does not support cross compiling or compiling for multiple architectures, so this has not been implemented.
* Linux has no add2app.
The assets copying is done in the install-phase of the CMake build of a flutter app.
CMake requires the native assets folder to exist, so we create it also when the feature is disabled or there are no assets.
### Tests
This PR adds new tests to cover the various use cases.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/linux/native_assets_test.dart
* Unit tests the Linux-specific part of building native assets.
It also extends various existing tests:
* packages/flutter_tools/test/integration.shard/native_assets_test.dart
* Runs (incl hot reload/hot restart), builds, builds frameworks for Linux and flutter-tester.

Looked at the error message from the broken TAP target, but seems like the failure might be non trivial to resolve. Would it be okay if we revert this for now while it is being triaged?
