Anywhere that accepted IconData now accepts either an Icon or an
ImageIcon.
Places that used to take an IconData in an `icon` argument, notably
IconButton and DrawerItem, now take a Widget in that slot. You can wrap
the value that used to be passed in in an Icon constructor to get the
same result.
Icon itself now takes the icon as a positional argument, for brevity.
ThemeData now has an iconTheme as well as a primaryIconTheme, the same
way it has had a textTheme and primaryTextTheme for a while.
IconTheme.of() always returns a value now (though that value itself may
have nulls in it). It defaults to the ThemeData.iconTheme.
IconThemeData.fallback() is a new method that returns an icon theme data
structure with all fields filled in.
IconTheme.merge() is a new constructor that takes a context and creates
a widget that mixes in the new values with the inherited values.
Most places that introduced an IconTheme widget now use IconTheme.merge.
IconThemeData.merge and IconThemeData.copyWith act in a way analogous to
the similarly-named members of TextStyle.
ImageIcon is introduced. It acts like Icon but takes an ImageProvider
instead of an IconData.
Also: Fix the analyzer to actually check the stocks app.
The 'routes' table is a point of confusion with new developers. By
providing a 'home' argument that sets the '/' route, we can delay the
point at which we teach developers about 'routes' until the point where
they want to have a second route.
This gives developers a breadcrumb they can follow to customize the
theme of their app. Previously, some customers were trying to set a
theme by manually configuring the colors of all their widgets.
Fixes#2980
* left -> leading (Removes an LTR bias)
* center -> title (Widget was actually centered)
* right -> actions (Removes an LTR bias, asymmetric with leading)
Fixes#2348
Rather than managing all the Material Design icons manually, we now
manage them using an icon font. The icon font contains glyphs for each
icon in an efficient vector format.
This patch updates the FLX tooling to include the MaterialIcons font and
updates the Icon widget to use the font instead of asset images.
