In service of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/143348.
**Issue.** The `equals` implementation of `AssetsEntry` is incorrect. It compares `flavors` lists using reference equality. This PR addresses this.
This also adds a test to make sure valid asset `flavors` declarations are parsed correctly.
While we are here, this PR also includes a couple of refactorings:
* `flutter_manifest_test.dart` is a bit large. To better match our style guide, I've factored out some related tests into their own file.
* A couple of changes to the `_validateListType` function in `flutter_manifest.dart`:
* The function now returns a list of errors instead of accepting a list to append onto. This is more readable and also allows callers to know which errors were found by the call.
* The function is renamed to `_validateList` and now accepts an `Object?` instead of an `YamlList`. If the argument is null, an appropriate error message is contained in the output. This saves callers that are only interested in validation from having to write their own null-check, which they all did before.
* Some error strings were tweaked for increased readability and/or grammatical correctness.
Reverts flutter/flutter#132985
Initiated by: christopherfujino
This change reverts the following previous change:
Original Description:
Provides support for conditional bundling of assets through the existing `--flavor` option for `flutter build` and `flutter run`. Closes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/21682. Resolves https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/136092
## Change
Within the `assets` section pubspec.yaml, the user can now specify one or more `flavors` that an asset belongs to. Consider this example:
```yaml
# pubspec.yaml
flutter:
assets:
- assets/normal-asset.png
- path: assets/vanilla/ice-cream.png
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/strawberry/ice-cream.png
flavors:
- strawberry
```
With this pubspec,
* `flutter run --flavor vanilla` will not include `assets/strawberry/ice-cream.png` in the build output.
* `flutter run --flavor strawberry` will not include `assets/vanilla/ice-cream.png`.
* `flutter run` will only include `assets/normal-asset.png`.
## Open questions
* Should this be supported for all platforms, or should this change be limited to ones with documented `--flavor` support (Android, iOS, and (implicitly) MacOS)? This PR currently only enables this feature for officially supported platforms.
## Design thoughts, what this PR does not do, etc.
### This does not provide an automatic mapping/resolution of asset keys/paths to others based on flavor at runtime.
The implementation in this PR represents a simplest approach. Notably, it does not give Flutter the ability to dynamically choose an asset based on flavor using a single asset key. For example, one can't use `Image.asset('config.json')` to dynamically choose between different "flavors" of `config.json` (such as `dev-flavor/config.json` or `prod-flavor/config.json`). However, a user could always implement such a mechanism in their project or in a library by examining the flavor at runtime.
### When multiple entries affect the same file and 1) at least one of these entries have a `flavors` list provided and 2) these lists are not equivalent, we always consider the manifest to be ambiguous and will throw a `ToolExit`.
<details>
For example, these manifests would all be considered ambiguous:
```yaml
assets:
- assets/
- path: assets/vanilla.png
flavors:
- vanilla
assets:
- path: assets/vanilla/
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/vanilla/cherry.png
flavor:
- cherry
# Thinking towards the future where we might add glob/regex support and more conditions other than flavor:
assets:
- path: assets/vanilla/**
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/**/ios/**
platforms:
- ios
# Ambiguous in the case of assets like "assets/vanilla/ios/icon.svg" since we
# don't know if flavor `vanilla` and platform `ios` should be combined using or-logic or and-logic.
```

### This does not support Android's multidimensional flavors feature (in an intuitive way)
<details>
Conder this excerpt from a Flutter project's android/app/build.gradle file:
```groovy
android {
// ...
flavorDimensions "mode", "api"
productFlavors {
free {
dimension "mode"
applicationIdSuffix ".free"
}
premium {
dimension "mode"
applicationIdSuffix ".premium"
}
minApi23 {
dimension "api"
versionNameSuffix "-minApi23"
}
minApi21 {
dimension "api"
versionNameSuffix "-minApi21"
}
}
}
```
In this setup, the following values are valid `--flavor` are valid `freeMinApi21`, `freeMinApi23`, `premiumMinApi21`, and `premiumMinApi23`. We call these values "flavor combinations". Consider the following from the Android documentation[^1]:
> In addition to the source set directories you can create for each individual product flavor and build variant, you can also create source set directories for each combination of product flavors. For example, you can create and add Java sources to the src/demoMinApi24/java/ directory, and Gradle uses those sources only when building a variant that combines those two product flavors.
>
> Source sets you create for product flavor combinations have a higher priority than source sets that belong to each individual product flavor. To learn more about source sets and how Gradle merges resources, read the section about how to [create source sets](https://developer.android.com/build/build-variants#sourcesets).
This feature will not behave in this way. If a user utilizes this feature and also Android's multidimensional flavors feature, they will have to list out all flavor combinations that contain the flavor they want to limit an asset to:
```yaml
assets:
- assets/free/
flavors:
- freeMinApi21
- freeMinApi23
```
This is mostly due to a technical limitation in the hot-reload feature of `flutter run`. During a hot reload, the tool will try to update the asset bundle on the device, but the tool does not know the flavors contained within the flavor combination (that the user passes to `--flavor`). Gradle is the source of truth of what flavors were involved in the build, and `flutter run` currently does not access to that information since it's an implementation detail of the build process. We could bubble up this information, but it would require a nontrivial amount of engineering work, and it's unclear how desired this functionality is. It might not be worth implementing.

Allow configuring the flutter_manifest to support a synthetic package, this is done through flutter: generate: true.
When running pub get, insert a flutter_gen entry into the packages if it does not already exist. This points to .dart_tool/flutter_gen, which can be updated to contain the generated intl sources (But doesn't currently)
Adds an integration test that verifies this code can be run and imported when enabled.
Part of #60914
* Update packages.
* Add many more global analyses.
* Catch trailing spaces and trailing newlines in all text files.
Before we were only checking newly added files, but that means we
missed some.
* Port the trailing spaces logic to work on Windows too.
* Correct all the files with trailing spaces and newlines.
* Refactor some of the dev/bots logic into a utils.dart library.
Notably, the "exit" and "print" shims for testing are now usable
from test.dart, analyze.dart, and run_command.dart.
* Add an "exitWithError" function that prints the red lines and
then exits. This is the preferred way to exit from test.dart,
analyze.dart, and run_command.dart.
* More consistency in the output of analyze.dart.
* Refactor analyze.dart to use the _allFiles file enumerating logic
more widely.
* Add some double-checking logic to the _allFiles logic to catch
cases where changes to that logic end up catching fewer files
than expected (helps prevent future false positives).
* Add a check to prevent new binary files from being added to
the repository. Grandfather in the binaries that we've already
added.
* Update all the dependencies (needed because we now import crypto in
dev/bots/analyze.dart).
* Update project.pbxproj files to say Flutter rather than Chromium
Also, the templates now have an empty organization so that we don't cause people to give their apps a Flutter copyright.
* Update the copyright notice checker to require a standard notice on all files
* Update copyrights on Dart files. (This was a mechanical commit.)
* Fix weird license headers on Dart files that deviate from our conventions; relicense Shrine.
Some were already marked "The Flutter Authors", not clear why. Their
dates have been normalized. Some were missing the blank line after the
license. Some were randomly different in trivial ways for no apparent
reason (e.g. missing the trailing period).
* Clean up the copyrights in non-Dart files. (Manual edits.)
Also, make sure templates don't have copyrights.
* Fix some more ORGANIZATIONNAMEs
...because otherwise, processes that think they're manipulating your
filesystem will be doing crazy things the test is ignoring, leading to
(at best) failures and (at worst) flakes or disk corruption.
