https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/151675 bumped module templates to AGP 8.1.
In doing so, I tried to work around a behavior change [that was new in AGP 8.0](https://developer.android.com/build/releases/past-releases/agp-8-0-0-release-notes):
> AGP 8.0 creates no SoftwareComponent by default. Instead AGP creates SoftwareComponents only for variants that are configured to be published using the publishing DSL.
by using AGP's publishing DSL to define which variants to publish in the module's ephemeral gradle files:
```
android.buildTypes.all {buildType ->
if (!android.productFlavors.isEmpty()) {
android.productFlavors.all{productFlavor ->
android.publishing.singleVariant(productFlavor.name + buildType.name.capitalize()) {
withSourcesJar()
withJavadocJar()
}
}
} else {
android.publishing.singleVariant(buildType.name) {
withSourcesJar()
withJavadocJar()
}
}
}
```
The problem is that this doesn't get applied to the plugin projects used by the module, so if a module uses any plugin it breaks. This PR fixes that by applying similar logic, but to each project (not just the module's project).
Tested manually with https://github.com/gmackall/GrayAddToApp, and also re-enabled an old test that tested this use case as a part of the PR.

This PR injects a "realm" component to the storage base URL when the contents of the file `bin/internal/engine.realm` is non-empty.
As documented in the PR, when the realm is `flutter_archives_v2`, and `bin/internal/engine.version` contains the commit hash for a commit in a `flutter/engine` PR, then the artifacts pulled by the tool will be the artifacts built by the presubmit checks for the PR.
This works for everything but the following two cases:
1. Fuchsia artifacts are not uploaded to CIPD by the Fuchsia presubmit builds.
2. Web artifacts are not uploaded to gstatic by the web engine presubmit builds.
For (1), the flutter/flutter presubmit `fuchsia_precache` is driven by a shell script outside of the repo. It will fail when the `engine.version` and `engine.realm` don't point to a post-submit engine commit.
For (2), the flutter/flutter web presubmit tests that refer to artifacts in gstatic hang when the artifacts aren't found, so this PR skips them.
* 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
`flutter build aar`
This new build command works just like `flutter build apk` or `flutter build appbundle`, but for plugin and module projects.
This PR also refactors how plugins are included in app or module projects. By building the plugins as AARs, the Android Gradle plugin is able to use Jetifier to translate support libraries into AndroidX libraries for all the plugin's native code. Thus, reducing the error rate when using AndroidX in apps.
This change also allows to build modules as AARs, so developers can take these artifacts and distribute them along with the native host app without the need of the Flutter tool. This is a requirement for add to app.
`flutter build aar` generates POM artifacts (XML files) which contain metadata about the native dependencies used by the plugin. This allows Gradle to resolve dependencies at the app level. The result of this new build command is a single build/outputs/repo, the local repository that contains all the generated AARs and POM files.
In a Flutter app project, this local repo is used by the Flutter Gradle plugin to resolve the plugin dependencies. In add to app case, the developer needs to configure the local repo and the dependency manually in `build.gradle`:
repositories {
maven {
url "<path-to-flutter-module>build/host/outputs/repo"
}
}
dependencies {
implementation("<package-name>:flutter_<build-mode>:1.0@aar") {
transitive = true
}
}
