This PR adds initial support for Swift Package Manager (SPM). Users must opt in. Only compatible with Xcode 15+.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/146369.
## Included Features
This PR includes the following features:
* Enabling SPM via config
`flutter config --enable-swift-package-manager`
* Disabling SPM via config (will disable for all projects)
`flutter config --no-enable-swift-package-manager`
* Disabling SPM via pubspec.yaml (will disable for the specific project)
```
flutter:
disable-swift-package-manager: true
```
* Migrating existing apps to add SPM integration if using a Flutter plugin with a Package.swift
* Generates a Swift Package (named `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage`) that handles Flutter SPM-compatible plugin dependencies. Generated package is added to the Xcode project.
* Error parsing of common errors that may occur due to using CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager together
* Tool will print warnings when using all Swift Package plugins and encourage you to remove CocoaPods
This PR also converts `integration_test` and `integration_test_macos` plugins to be both Swift Packages and CocoaPod Pods.
## How it Works
The Flutter CLI will generate a Swift Package called `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage`, which will have local dependencies on all Swift Package compatible Flutter plugins.
The `FlutterGeneratedPluginSwiftPackage` package will be added to the Xcode project via altering of the `project.pbxproj`.
In addition, a "Pre-action" script will be added via altering of the `Runner.xcscheme`. This script will invoke the flutter tool to copy the Flutter/FlutterMacOS framework to the `BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR` directory before the build starts. This is needed because plugins need to be linked to the Flutter framework and fortunately Swift Package Manager automatically uses `BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR` as a framework search path.
CocoaPods will continue to run and be used to support non-Swift Package compatible Flutter plugins.
## Not Included Features
It does not include the following (will be added in future PRs):
* Create plugin template
* Create app template
* Add-to-App integration

Original Description:
Provides support for conditional bundling of assets through the existing `--flavor` option for `flutter build` and `flutter run`. Closes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/21682. Resolves https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/136092
## Change
Within the `assets` section pubspec.yaml, the user can now specify one or more `flavors` that an asset belongs to. Consider this example:
```yaml
# pubspec.yaml
flutter:
assets:
- assets/normal-asset.png
- path: assets/vanilla/ice-cream.png
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/strawberry/ice-cream.png
flavors:
- strawberry
```
With this pubspec,
* `flutter run --flavor vanilla` will not include `assets/strawberry/ice-cream.png` in the build output.
* `flutter run --flavor strawberry` will not include `assets/vanilla/ice-cream.png`.
* `flutter run` will only include `assets/normal-asset.png`.
## Open questions
* Should this be supported for all platforms, or should this change be limited to ones with documented `--flavor` support (Android, iOS, and (implicitly) MacOS)? This PR currently only enables this feature for officially supported platforms.
## Design thoughts, what this PR does not do, etc.
### This does not provide an automatic mapping/resolution of asset keys/paths to others based on flavor at runtime.
The implementation in this PR represents a simplest approach. Notably, it does not give Flutter the ability to dynamically choose an asset based on flavor using a single asset key. For example, one can't use `Image.asset('config.json')` to dynamically choose between different "flavors" of `config.json` (such as `dev-flavor/config.json` or `prod-flavor/config.json`). However, a user could always implement such a mechanism in their project or in a library by examining the flavor at runtime.
### When multiple entries affect the same file and 1) at least one of these entries have a `flavors` list provided and 2) these lists are not equivalent, we always consider the manifest to be ambiguous and will throw a `ToolExit`.
<details>
For example, these manifests would all be considered ambiguous:
```yaml
assets:
- assets/
- path: assets/vanilla.png
flavors:
- vanilla
assets:
- path: assets/vanilla/
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/vanilla/cherry.png
flavor:
- cherry
# Thinking towards the future where we might add glob/regex support and more conditions other than flavor:
assets:
- path: assets/vanilla/**
flavors:
- vanilla
- path: assets/**/ios/**
platforms:
- ios
# Ambiguous in the case of assets like "assets/vanilla/ios/icon.svg" since we
# don't know if flavor `vanilla` and platform `ios` should be combined using or-logic or and-logic.
```

### This does not support Android's multidimensional flavors feature (in an intuitive way)
<details>
Conder this excerpt from a Flutter project's android/app/build.gradle file:
```groovy
android {
// ...
flavorDimensions "mode", "api"
productFlavors {
free {
dimension "mode"
applicationIdSuffix ".free"
}
premium {
dimension "mode"
applicationIdSuffix ".premium"
}
minApi23 {
dimension "api"
versionNameSuffix "-minApi23"
}
minApi21 {
dimension "api"
versionNameSuffix "-minApi21"
}
}
}
```
In this setup, the following values are valid `--flavor` are valid `freeMinApi21`, `freeMinApi23`, `premiumMinApi21`, and `premiumMinApi23`. We call these values "flavor combinations". Consider the following from the Android documentation[^1]:
> In addition to the source set directories you can create for each individual product flavor and build variant, you can also create source set directories for each combination of product flavors. For example, you can create and add Java sources to the src/demoMinApi24/java/ directory, and Gradle uses those sources only when building a variant that combines those two product flavors.
>
> Source sets you create for product flavor combinations have a higher priority than source sets that belong to each individual product flavor. To learn more about source sets and how Gradle merges resources, read the section about how to [create source sets](https://developer.android.com/build/build-variants#sourcesets).
This feature will not behave in this way. If a user utilizes this feature and also Android's multidimensional flavors feature, they will have to list out all flavor combinations that contain the flavor they want to limit an asset to:
```yaml
assets:
- assets/free/
flavors:
- freeMinApi21
- freeMinApi23
```
This is mostly due to a technical limitation in the hot-reload feature of `flutter run`. During a hot reload, the tool will try to update the asset bundle on the device, but the tool does not know the flavors contained within the flavor combination (that the user passes to `--flavor`). Gradle is the source of truth of what flavors were involved in the build, and `flutter run` currently does not access to that information since it's an implementation detail of the build process. We could bubble up this information, but it would require a nontrivial amount of engineering work, and it's unclear how desired this functionality is. It might not be worth implementing.

Original Description:
Some of our tests in CI are triggering the `NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription` dialog when they're not supposed to (https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/129836) since it's disabled via flags (`--no-publish-port` for flutter/flutter and `--disable-vm-service-publication` for flutter/engine).
Normally, we inject `NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription` (and other bonjour settings) to the Info.plist during the project build for debug and profile mode since by default they will publish the VM Service port over mDNS.
To help diagnose the issue, though, this PR changes it so that we don't inject `NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription` (and other bonjour settings) when port publication is disabled since it shouldn't be needed. Hopefully, this will give us better error messages or cause the app to crash and end the test early (rather than timeout after 30 minutes).

Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on MacOS and iOS. This enables bundling native code without any build-system boilerplate code.
For more info see:
* https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/129757
### 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.
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/native_assets_ios.dart
* Runs an example app with native assets in all build modes, doing hot reload and hot restart in debug mode.
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/native_assets_ios_simulator.dart
* Runs an example app with native assets, doing hot reload and hot restart.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/integration.shard/native_assets_test.dart
* Runs (incl hot reload/hot restart), builds, builds frameworks for iOS, MacOS and flutter-tester.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/build_system/targets/native_assets_test.dart
* Unit tests the new Target in the backend.

It also extends various existing tests:
* dev/devicelab/bin/tasks/module_test_ios.dart
* Exercises the add2app scenario.
* packages/flutter_tools/test/general.shard/features_test.dart
* Unit test the new feature flag.
Partial work towards https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/132245.
Other than updating error messages, and passing `$LOCAL_ENGINE_HOST`
downwards, this PR should not change the behavior of any existing
workflows or code (i.e. it's purely additive).
