This adds a macrobenchmark representative of a real world application that uses SVG icons. The scenario of rasterizing complex paths that don't change over time does not seem to be covered by any other macrobenchmark and shows a significantly slower impeller performance compared to skia.
It's actually bit problematic to measure this because on A15 the CPU load with impeller is high enough to trigger CPU frequency change. So in order to get consistent reading I had to add a spinning background thread that would keep the CPU at highest frequency.
```objc
[NSThread detachNewThreadWithBlock:^{
while (true) {
pthread_yield_np();
}
}];
```
```bash
flutter drive --profile --local-engine=ios_profile -t test_driver/run_app.dart --driver test_driver/path_tessellation_static_perf_test.dart
```

This reduce the execution time of macrobenchmarks driver tests.
I tried to find the exact size to scroll the screen but I couldn't find a way to do that with driver tests.
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.
JSNumber.toDart will now be two functions: toDartDouble and toDartInt.
There was code that did an Object.toJS. This has been changed to
use Function.toJS as well to make it consistent with the code
in flutter/packages:

This is to help land this CL:
https://dart-review.googlesource.com/c/sdk/+/309082https://dart-review.googlesource.com/c/sdk/+/309081 is the CL that added
the new methods.

Remove implementation of SuitePlatform from the test as well. Remove use
of fake cwd from SuitePlatform as it can't be properly faked.
This enables benchmarks for the Skwasm renderer, compiled with
dart2wasm.
Platform views aren't supported in Skwasm yet, so we are skipping those
benchmarks for now.
## FlutterTimeline
Add a new class `FlutterTimeline` that's a drop-in replacement for `Timeline` from `dart:developer`. In addition to forwarding invocations of `startSync`, `finishSync`, `timeSync`, and `instantSync` to `dart:developer`, provides the following extra methods that make is easy to collect timings for code blocks on a frame-by-frame basis:
* `debugCollect()` - aggregates timings since the last reset, or since the app launched.
* `debugReset()` - forgets all data collected since the previous reset, or since the app launched. This allows clearing data from previous frames so timings can be attributed to the current frame.
* `now` - this was enhanced so that it works on the web by calling `window.performance.now` (in `Timeline` this is a noop in Dart web compilers).
* `collectionEnabled` - a field that controls whether `FlutterTimeline` stores timings in memory. By default this is disabled to avoid unexpected overhead (although the class is designed for minimal and predictable overhead). Specific benchmarks can enable collection to report to Skia Perf.
## Semantics benchmarks
Add `BenchMaterial3Semantics` that benchmarks the cost of semantics when constructing a screen full of Material 3 widgets from nothing. It is expected that semantics will have non-trivial cost in this case, but we should strive to keep it much lower than the rendering cost. This is the case already. This benchmark shows that the cost of semantics is <10%.
Add `BenchMaterial3ScrollSemantics` that benchmarks the cost of scrolling a previously constructed screen full of Material 3 widgets. The expectation should be that semantics will have trivial cost, since we're just shifting some widgets around. As of today, the numbers are not great, with semantics taking >50% of frame time, which is what prompted this PR in the first place. As we optimize this, we want to see this number improve.
- Bumps `vm_service` from `11.6.0` to `11.7.1`
- Bumps `web` from `0.1.3-beta` to `0.1.4-beta` and adds it everywhere.
- Moves `js` from `dependencies` to `dev_dependencies`
By default, the browser fuzzes the timer APIs such that they have a granularity of approximately 100 microseconds (this is due to Spectre mitigation techniques). However, many of the thing we are trying to measure actually have a much finer granularity than 100 microseconds. As a result, many of our benchmarks are extremely noisy and don't provide accurate data.
By serving the initial script files with the `Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin` and `Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: require-corp` HTTP headers, the browser runs the benchmarks in a `crossOriginIsolated` context, which restores the fine granularity of APIs such as `performance.now()` to microsecond precision.
Also, we were considering anything an outlier that was more than one standard deviation away from the mean. In a normal distribution, that means we are only capturing 68% of the data and the rest are considered outliers. This is not ideal. Doing two standard deviations away captures 95% of the data, and the outliers are in the remaining 5%, which seems much more reasonable.
1. Add iOS and macOS migration to mark "last upgraded" Xcode version to 14.3 to prevent `Update to recommended settings` warning.
2. Update iOS and macOS templates to same.
3. Update iOS template to set `BuildIndependentTargetsInParallel` to YES as suggested. I didn't add a migration for this since it seems like a minor optimization and I don't think it's worth a potentially botched/corrupted migration.
4. Run all example/integration test project to see migrator work.
5. Add some missing test projects to the build shard since I noticed they were missing and I had to build those manually outside `SHARD=build_tests`.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/125817
