There are two issues in the previous implementation:
1. `_populateDevices` will return the devices from `deviceNotifier` if it had been initialized, assuming that once it's initialized, it has been properly populated. That assumption is not true because calling getters like `onAdded` would initialize `deviceNotifier` without populating it.
2. `deviceNotifier` instance might be replaced in some cases, causing `onAdded` subscribers to lose any future updates.
To fix (1), this commit added the `isPopulated` field in `deviceNotifier` as a more accurate flag to determine if we need to populate it.
To fix (2), this commit made `deviceNotifier` a final member in `PolingDeviceDiscovery`.
Explicitly handle the case where the iOS device is not paired. On `flutter run` show an error and bail instead of trying and failing to launch on the device.
On this PR:
```
$ flutter run -d 00008110-0009588C2651401E

This PR includes the following changes. These changes only apply to iOS 17 physical devices.
| Command | Change Description | Changes to User Experience |
| ------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| `flutter run --release` | Uses `devicectl` to install and launch application in release mode. | No change. |
| `flutter run` | Uses Xcode via automation scripting to run application in debug and profile mode. | Xcode will be opened in the background. Errors/crashes may be caught in Xcode and therefore may not show in terminal. |
| `flutter run --use-application-binary=xxxx` | Creates temporary empty Xcode project and use Xcode to run via automation scripting in debug and profile. | Xcode will be opened in the background. Errors/crashes may be caught in Xcode and therefore may not show in terminal. |
| `flutter install` | Uses `devicectl` to check installed apps, install app, uninstall app. | No change. |
| `flutter screenshot` | Will return error. | Will return error. |
Other changes include:
* Using `devicectl` to get information about the device
* Using `idevicesyslog` and Dart VM logging for device logs
Note:
Xcode automation scripting (used in `flutter run` for debug and profile) does not work in a headless (without a UI) interface. No known workaround.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/128827, https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/128531.
This PR fixes issue of duplicate entries from `xcdevice list` cause devices to not show in `flutter devices`, `flutter run`, etc.
When a duplicate entry is found, use the entry without errors as the authority. If both have errors, use the one with the higher SDK as the authority.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/128719.
The flutter run failures are cause by the application occasionally taking a long time to start up. This caused the ios fallback discovery to kick in, which will always fail if the application hasn't started. Solution: remove the iOS fallback discovery and wait up to 30 seconds.
This has not proven to reduce the flakes, but it does at least remove one error case and removes code that will no longer work without the mDNS fallback.
Flutter logs should not attempt to filter the device list based on the current project, because it does not require a current project. Also fix disabled polling test
Fixes#47996Fixes#63550
instead of restricting profile/release mode based on whether the tool thinks the device is an emulator, restrict based on the device target architecture and the requested build mode. Notably, this enables release mode on x86_64 Android emulators, but not x86 emulators since we do not support that as an AOT target.
This does not add release mode support for simulators, since this requires us to build and upload artifacts for simulator/x86_64
