Change the following in the `flutter create` templates. I didn't make any auto-migrations for existing apps because none seem that critical:
1. Turn on `ASSETCATALOG_COMPILER_GENERATE_SWIFT_ASSET_SYMBOL_EXTENSIONS` in iOS and macOS.
1. Turn on `BuildIndependentTargetsInParallel` in macOS template. https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/125827/files#r1181817619
1. Turn on `DEAD_CODE_STRIPPING` in macOS template.
1. Set `ENABLE_USER_SCRIPT_SANDBOXING=NO` in iOS and macOS template. `flutter` scripts don't work with this on. This might require a migration in the future to explicitly turn this one off. However at least for now if the setting isn't present it defaults to `NO`.
Add migration for `LastUpgradeVersion` so users won't see these validation issues in Xcode.
Run migrator on all the example apps. A few aren't Flutter apps so I edited them in Xcode.

Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/140665 by replacing use of `setUpAll` and `teardownAll` with `setUp` and `teardown` respectively.
My theory has to how this issue happened (and how this PR fixes it) is that `setUpAll` is not guaranteed to run after any `setUp` in any parent test groups. However, `setUp` is guaranteed to run after any set-up callbacks in parent groups. From the [documentation](https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/flutter_test/setUp.html):
> If this is called within a test group, it applies only to tests in that group. The body will be run after any set-up callbacks in parent groups or at the top level.
Meanwhile, [`setUpAll`](https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/flutter_test/setUpAll.html) has a weaker documented guarantee that applies only to other `setUpAll` calls:
> If this is called within a test group, The body will run before all tests in that group. It will be run after any [setUpAll](https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/flutter_test/setUpAll.html) callbacks in parent groups or at the top level. It won't be run if none of the tests in the group are run.

When the tool migrated to `.flutter-plugins-dependencies`, the Gradle plugin was never changed.
Until now, the plugin had the heuristic that a plugin with a `android/build.gradle` file supported the Android platform.
Also applies schema of `getPluginDependencies` to `getPluginList` which uses a `List` of Object instead of `Properties`.

The deprecated line `include ":$name"` in `settings.gradle` (pluginEach) in old projects causes the `project.rootProject.findProject` to also find the plugin "project", so it is not failing on the `afterEvaluate` method. But the plugin shouldn't be included in the first place as it fails with `Could not find method implementation() for arguments` error in special cases.

This updates the `Analytics` constructor to provide it with the enabled features for the flutter-tool. This will be sent with each event for the flutter-tool.
List of changes:
1. Optimizations in FileTransfer. a. Use `stream.forEach` instead of `await for`. b. Type cast `List<int>` to `Uint8List` instead of using `Uint8List.fromList` results in (presumably) fewer copy and faster execution. c. Iterate through `Uint8List` with regular for loop instead of for-in loop.
2. Precache the block hashes of a file, and reuse it on subsequent runs.

This adds a static helper method `ProcessUtils.writelnToStdinGuarded()`, which will asynchronously write to a sub-process's STDIN `IOSink` and catch errors.
In talking with Brian, it sounds like this is the best and most reliable way to catch `SocketException`s during these writes *to sub-process file descriptors* specifically (with a "real" hard drive file, the future returned by `.flush()` should complete with the write error).
Also, as I note in the dartdoc to `writelnToStdinGuarded()`, the behavior seems to be different between macOS and linux.
Moving forward, in any place where we want to catch exceptions writing to STDIN, we will want to use this new helper.
For CoreDevices we use a combination of mDNS and device logs to find the Dart VM url. If mDNS fails first, it will cause the launch to fail even though the device logs may be able to find the url. So if one of the methods fails, wait for the other method before failing the launch.

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.

Updates Gradle version for Flutter project templates and integration tests to at least 7.6.3 (changed all of those with versions below it) to fix security vulnerability.
Part of fix for https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/138336.
Support for FFI calls with `@Native external` functions through Native assets on Android. 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 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.
## Summary
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/139180, where `flutter create` could crash if the `java` binary the tool found cannot be run.
## Context
At startup, the tool searches for a Java installation[^1]. Unless the located installation is from [an Android Studio installation](e1967ecabf/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/android/android_studio.dart (L163)), the tool does not verify that the binary is runnable. For more, see https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/139613, which tracks this inconsistency in behavior.
This means that in the scenario where
1) the user does not have Android Studio installed or the java binary found within cannot be run **and**
2) the user has a) `flutter config --jdk-dir` set, b) `JAVA_HOME` set in their environment, **or** c) `java` on their system path **and**
3) the java binary we think we found during cannot be run (or `java --version` fails), **then**
the user running `flutter create` with Android enabled will hit a tool crash.
## Change
`Java.version` should return null if version checking fails for any reason. [This is documented behavior](48f57621ad/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/android/java.dart (L136)). Therefore, we'll update the implementation to first verify that the binary is runnable. If it isn't, it will return `null`.
[^1]: We find java by calling the static `Java.find`, see: 48187028c1/packages/flutter_tools/lib/src/context_runner.dart (L271)
[^2]: This PR doesn't change this, as this would be too dangerous to cherry-pick into stable.

Checks `pod install` output for the case where a pod requires a higher minimum OS deployment target version than the app is set to use, and attempts to turn it into a more actionable error message. This isn't foolproof since we are parsing the Ruby rather than actually executing it, but I would expect that the vast majority of cases would end up in the most useful version (and even those that don't are still much clearer with this as the final error message text than without it).

Without this, if a user runs an app that has plugins that call method channels with the `preview` device, the app will build successfully, however, they will get a runtime error when their dart code tries to call the method channel that does not exist in the native build (which was pre-built and thus does not include the plugin code).
This change adds a validation when injecting plugins that will tool exit if the device-id is `preview` and their project contains plugins with method channels.
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.

Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/130808. Short context is that the migration guide doesn't help when a user has a newer java version than 17, and this tells them how to fix the error in that situation.
This is an alternative to https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/131354, because I think it is a bad idea to introduce branching in how we handle this error with some specialized regexp.

Alters how `throwToolExit` creates its matcher. This results is an improved description of the matcher.
The mismatch description isn't improved by this, but I writing an entirely custom matcher to fix this isn't ideal either. We can instead mitigate the issue by augmenting the `toString` implementation of `ToolExit` to include the exit code, if it is non-null.
With these changes, the first few lines of output from a test would look like this:
```
Expected: throws <Instance of 'ToolExit'> with `exitCode`: <42> and `message`: contains 'message'
Actual: <Closure: () => Never>
Which: threw ToolExit:<Exit code: 41232. Error: message>

This change reverts the following previous change:
Original Description:
One of the reasons gathering coverage information is expensive is that we have to force compile every function in the libraries we're interested in. Without this, functions that haven't been invoked (so haven't been compiled) won't have any line number information, so the coverage tool doesn't know which lines to add to the list of misses. In flutter's case, the test infra spawns many VMs, and each of these needs to recompile all those libraries.
To fix this, we need a way of skipping force compilation for libraries we've already seen in previous tests, without losing the information about which lines in each library are coverable. So I [added](https://github.com/dart-lang/coverage/pull/466) the `coverableLineCache` to `coverage.collect` in package:coverage v1.7.0. This cache starts out empty, but fills up with lists of all the lines that are coverable for every library as coverage is gathered. package:coverage can then tell the VM not to force compile any libraries in this cache (using `getSourceReport`'s `librariesAlreadyCompiled` param). So the first test suite will still have to compile everything, but subsequent test suites will be much faster.
This speeds up coverage collection significantly, for large test suites:
| Running flutter/packages/flutter tests... | Time | Overhead |
| --- | --- | --- |
| without coverage | 8:53 | - |

| Running flutter/packages/flutter tests... | Time | Overhead |
| --- | --- | --- |
| without coverage | 8:53 | - |
| with coverage | 20:25 | 130% |
| with `coverableLineCache` | 12:21 | 40% |
