This updates the Flutter minimum iOS version from 12.0 to 13.0, adds a migrator for existing apps, and updates our own examples, tests, and benchmark apps to 13.0. A follow-up patch will drop iOS 13 `@available` checks in the embedder. This is required in order to use Swift in the embedder and not need to bundle the Swift runtime libs in every app that uses Flutter. Swift stable ABI As of March 2025, usage of iOS is well below 1%, see example public usage data here: https://telemetrydeck.com/survey/apple/iOS/majorSystemVersions/ This patch makes the following changes: 1. Updates ios_deployment_target from 12.0 to 13.0. 2. Changes templates to `IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET`, `MinimumOSVersion`, and Podfile `platform :ios` to 12.0. 3. Adds migrator for Podfile part to migrate `platform :ios, '11.0'` -> `platform :ios, '12.0'` 4. Compiles with `-miphoneos-version-min=12.0` 5. Runs the migrator on all example apps and integration tests. 6. Updates examples, tests to iOS 13 deployment target It also updates `verify_exported.dart`: * iOS 13 introduces stricter separation of const and non-const global symbols. Previously, these were declared in the Mach-O `__DATA` section which may be mapped read-write, but now they're in a dedicated `__DATA_CONST` section which is mapped read-only. This adds `(__DATA_CONST,__const)` to the allowlist with the same enforcement on exported symbol naming as before.

Templates for Flutter Module
common
Written to root of Flutter application.
Adds Dart project files including pubspec.yaml.
android
library
Written to the .android/ hidden folder.
Contents wraps Flutter/Dart code as a Gradle project that defines an Android library.
Executing ./gradlew flutter:assembleDebug in that folder produces
a .aar archive.
Android host apps can set up a dependency to this project to consume Flutter views.
gradle
Written to .android/ or android/.
Mixin for adding Gradle boilerplate to Android projects.
host_app_common
Written to either .android/ or android/.
Contents define a single-Activity, single-View Android host app
with a dependency on the .android/Flutter library.
Executing ./gradlew app:assembleDebug in the target folder produces
an .apk archive.
Used with either android_host_ephemeral or android_host_editable.
host_app_ephemeral
Written to .android/ on top of android_host_common.
Combined contents define an ephemeral (hidden, auto-generated,
under Flutter tooling control) Android host app with a dependency on the
.android/Flutter library.
host_app_editable
Written to android/ on top of android_host_common.
Combined contents define an editable (visible, one-time generated,
under app author control) Android host app with a dependency on the
.android/Flutter library.
ios
library
Written to the .ios/Flutter hidden folder.
Contents wraps Flutter/Dart code for consumption by an Xcode project.
iOS host apps can set up a dependency to this contents to consume Flutter views.
host_app_ephemeral
Written to .ios/ outside the Flutter/ sub-folder.
Combined contents define an ephemeral (hidden, auto-generated,
under Flutter tooling control) iOS host app with a dependency on the
.ios/Flutter folder contents.
The host app does not make use of CocoaPods, and is therefore suitable only when the Flutter part declares no plugin dependencies.
host_app_ephemeral_cocoapods
Written to .ios/ on top of host_app_ephemeral.
Adds CocoaPods support.
Combined contents define an ephemeral host app suitable for when the Flutter part declares plugin dependencies.
