On `Podfile`:
```ruby
flutter_application_path = '../flutter_module'
load File.join(flutter_application_path, '.ios', 'Flutter', 'podhelper.rb')
target 'OCProject' do
# Comment the next line if you don't want to use dynamic frameworks
use_frameworks!
# Pods for OCProject
# install_all_flutter_pods(flutter_application_path)
# install_flutter_engine_pod(flutter_application_path)
# install_flutter_application_pod(flutter_application_path)
install_flutter_plugin_pods(flutter_application_path)
end
post_install do |installer|
flutter_post_install(installer)
end
```
Encountering the following error after executing `pod install`:
```shell

The `flutter_relative_path_from_podfile` method is in `flutter_tools/bin/podhelper.rb`, but now `flutter_tools/bin/podhelper.rb` is only required in `install_all_flutter_pods` in `podhelper.rb.tmpl`.
Sometimes we only need to use the `install_flutter_plugin_pods` method in podhelper.rb. For example, using `Shorebird` in an iOS hybird app scenario, we need to build `Flutter.xcframework` and `App.xcframework` and embed them into the iOS native project. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, use `install_flutter_plugin_pods` method to install Flutter plugin pods.

So I adjust the position of `require File.expand_path(File.join('packages', 'flutter_tools', 'bin', 'podhelper'), flutter_root)`.
Packages the native assets for iOS and MacOS in frameworks.
Issue:
* https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/140544
* https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/129757
## Details
* [x] This packages dylibs from the native assets feature in frameworks. It packages every dylib in a separate framework.
* [x] The dylib name is updated to use `@rpath` instead of `@executable_path`.
* [x] The dylibs for flutter-tester are no longer modified to change the install name. (Previously it was wrongly updating the install name to the location the dylib would have once deployed in an app.)
* [x] Use symlinking on MacOS.
Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on Android. This enables bundling native code without any build-system boilerplate code.

### Implementation details for Android.
Mainly follows the design of the previous PRs.
For Android, we detect the compilers inside the NDK inside SDK.
And bundling of the assets is done by the flutter.groovy file.
The `minSdkVersion` is propagated from the flutter.groovy file as well.
The NDK is not part of `flutter doctor`, and users can omit it if no native assets have to be build.
However, if any native assets must be built, flutter throws a tool exit if the NDK is not installed.
Add 2 app is not part of this PR yet, instead `flutter build aar` will tool exit if there are any native assets.
Pin the dependencies from dart-lang/native to a specific version during testing (rather than having them auto-upgrade during pub resolution). This will prevent tests using the template to start failing if a bad version is published to pub.
Closes: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/137418
Also bumps dep in flutter_tools.

### Implementation details for MacOS and iOS.
Dylibs are bundled by (1) making them fat binaries if multiple architectures are targeted, (2) code signing these, and (3) copying them to the frameworks folder. These steps are done manual rather than via CocoaPods. CocoaPods would have done the same steps, but (a) needs the dylibs to be there before the `xcodebuild` invocation (we could trick it, by having a minimal dylib in the place and replace it during the build process, that works), and (b) can't deal with having no dylibs to be bundled (we'd have to bundle a dummy dylib or include some dummy C code in the build file).
The dylibs are build as a new target inside flutter assemble, as that is the moment we know what build-mode and architecture to target.
The mapping from asset id to dylib-path is passed in to every kernel compilation path. The interesting case is hot-restart where the initial kernel file is compiled by the "inner" flutter assemble, while after hot restart the "outer" flutter run compiled kernel file is pushed to the device. Both kernel files need to contain the mapping. The "inner" flutter assemble gets its mapping from the NativeAssets target which builds the native assets. The "outer" flutter run get its mapping from a dry-run invocation. Since this hot restart can be used for multiple target devices (`flutter run -d all`) it contains the mapping for all known targets.
### Example vs template
The PR includes a new template that uses the new native assets in a package and has an app importing that. Separate discussion in: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/131209.
### Tests
This PR adds new tests to cover the various use cases.
