I previously made a PR (#136140) that used `switch` expressions to make some parts of the Flutter codebase easier to understand. It was assigned to the framework team, and @christopherfujino let me know that it was too large to effectively review and recommended breaking it up into smaller pull requests.
Here's a PR that only targets files in the `dev/` directory. Hopefully this will be easier to work with!
(solves issue https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/136139)
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.
* Update parameters to the `styleFrom` button methods.
* Updated the Flutter fix data to point to this PR.
* Updated handling of background color to better maintain backwards compatibility with previous API.
This PR adds the linux and windows target platform enum values, along with automatically setting the defaultTargetPlatform to the appropriate value on those platforms.
Fixes#31366
This implements VisualDensity changes for text fields*. By default, the layout of the text field does not change.
If the ThemeData.visualDensity is set to a value other than zero, then the density of the UI will increase or decrease. See the VisualDensity docs for more information.
(*In reality, the changes are on the InputDecorator class, not on the text field.)
I also fixed a problem that I think I found with _Decoration where it doesn't compare isDense or isCollapsed as part of its operator==.
Adds a manual test that allows testing of density for buttons. Also updates some of the button tests to be somewhat simpler and to test the child positions in the test to make sure they are consistent.
