This allows for developers to perform a hot restart on the preview
environment in the case they get into a bad state.
This change adds a `hotRestartPreviewer` method to the `widget-preview`
DTD service registered by the Flutter Tool, which is invoked by the
previewer.

Updates the widget previewer to properly handle previews defined across
a workspace. This is effectively equivalent to displaying previews from
multiple individual projects, which required a fairly significant rework
to properly support:
- resolving asset paths to the right project
- loading assets across projects in the workspace
- tracking changes to pubspec.yaml files across the workspace
While making this change, it became apparent that we don't need to
explicitly list the assets from the various projects explicitly in the
scaffold's pubspec.yaml as they're automatically pulled in by adding
those project's as dependencies and using the `package/$ASSET_PATH`
format to load the assets from the scaffold. This allowed for the
removal of a significant amount of logic related to building the
scaffold's pubspec.

This change adds a new `localizations` property to the `Preview`
annotation, which takes a callback that returns a
`PreviewLocalizationsData` object. This class contains the same
localization properties that can be provided to `WidgetsApp` and other
similar widgets.
This change also refactors much of the localization resolution logic
into a shared `LocalizationsResolver` class to allow for localization
resolution to be done in the widget preview scaffold on a per-preview
basis.

## **BREAKING CHANGE**
Adopting Apple's UISceneDelegate protocol shifts the initialization
order of apps. For the common cases we've made sure they will work
without change. The one case that will require a change is any app that
in `-[UIApplicateDelegate didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:]` assumes that
`UIApplicationDelegate.window.rootViewController` is a
`FlutterViewController` instance. Users should follow the [migration
guide](https://docs.google.com/document/d/16WsqYbANmhupw-gxGPQPZ9B3yz1YBIviS-N1UyIQNSE/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.txry2otwqko3)
to update that usage.
## Changes since revert
It's been rebased onto the FlutterPluginRegistrant PR which was used for
migration. The dynamic selection of the UISceneDelegate has been
removed, instead there is a flutter tool migration to the Info.plist.

This PR introduces two new widgets:
- `DisableWidgetInspectorScope`, which hides its children from the
widget inspector
- `EnableWidgetInspectorScope`, which makes its children available to
the widget inspector
These widgets are used to inform the `WidgetInspectorService`'s
`InspectorSerializationDelegate` when it should be omitting
`DiagnosticableNodes` from the response when building the root widget
tree for the inspector.
This functionality is meant to be used by developer tooling and packages
that want to prevent unnecessary implementation details from polluting
the inspector and possibly confusing end users.
This change also includes some minor updates to the Widget Preview
scaffolding template to hide the scaffold's implementation details and
only show details for the previews defined by the user.

In order to prevent the widget inspector from being able to select and
inspect elements of the widget previewer's scaffolding, this commit
consists of two notable changes:
1) A `debugWillManuallyInjectWidgetInspector` property has been added to
`WidgetsBinding`. Setting this property to true before running the
application will prevent `WidgetsApp` from injecting a `WidgetInspector`
instance into the widget tree, even if the widget inspector is enabled.
This means that the widget inspector will not be able to select and
highlight widgets by default, requiring `WidgetInspector` to be manually
wrapped around widget trees that should be inspectable.
2) The widget_preview_scaffold template has been updated to set
`debugWillManuallyInjectWidgetInspector` to true by default, and to wrap
individual previews provided by the developer with an instance of
`WidgetInspector` to restrict widget inspection to the contents of the
preview.
This change also includes a minor bug fix for situations where
`WidgetInspector` is inserted into an unconstrained context. Previously,
the `WidgetInspector`'s `_InspectorOverlay` would attempt to take up as
much space as possible, causing an overflow. To fix this, the
`_InspectorOverlay` is wrapped with `Positioned.fill(...)` to force it
to take on the same size as its parent `Stack`.

Roll packages to the ones published today.
Note that `native_assets_cli` was split up into `hooks` and
`code_assets`, and `native_assets_builder` was renamed to
`hooks_runner`.
This reverts commit 059326d49dcdf8aca1ddbe755cdb337059fe5b21 and updates
the `widget-preview` command to always spawn the previewer using a local
canvaskit binary.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/166865
Roll forward deps to the ones published today.
Note: `package:native_assets_cli` has a lower-bound on a Dart SDK dev
version to signal for which version of Dart and Flutter it is compatible
with. This means all these packages now have pre-release versions. Since
native assets is in experimental mode and not available on the
stable/beta branches, this is as expected.
Test exempt: Covered by existing tests, only rolling forward deps.
A soft restart simply removes the previewed widget from the widget tree
for a frame before re-inserting it on the next frame. This has the
effect of re-running local initializers in `State` objects, which would
normally require a hot restart to accomplish. This reduces the number of
cases where a full hot restart of the preview environment would be
needed to pick up state-related changes.
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/166450
**Updated Controls:**

**Demo:** updates a string initialized in `initState`, triggering a hot
reload. The updated string isn't rendered until the restart button is
pressed, causing the widget to be reloaded with the new state
initialized.

Adds a new `widget_preview_scaffold.shard` directory which contains a
hydrated `widget_preview_scaffold` template. This will allow for us to
write widget tests against the widgets defined in the templates.
This PR doesn't add any widget tests and is only adding the ability to
run these tests in follow up changes.

Updating the dart-lang/native dependencies to the ones published today.
No functional changes, but `CodeAsset` does not expose an `architecture`
and `os ` anymore (https://github.com/dart-lang/native/issues/2127).
Instead these should be taken from what is passed in for the
`CodeConfig`. This PR refactors the `DartBuildResult` to carry around
the `Target` with `CodeAsset`s as `FlutterCodeAsset`s.
(This PR avoid refactoring relevant code due to
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/164094 already refactoring this
code.)
This change reworks how users define previews in their code, expands the
number of valid 'functions' that can be used to create previews, and
allows for specifying a 'wrapper' function to wrap the previewed widget
with
The `WidgetPreview` class has been removed from the framework, with its
properties being added to the `Preview` annotation class instead to
remove some boilerplate from the preview declaration workflow.
Before:
```dart
@Preview()
List<WidgetPreview> previews() => <WidgetPreview>[
WidgetPreview(
name: 'Top-level preview',
child: Text('Foo'),
),
];
```
After:
```dart
@Preview(name: 'Top-level preview')
Widget previews() => Text('Foo');
```
Previews can now be defined using top-level functions, constructors and
factories which take no arguments, and static methods within classes:
Examples:
```dart
@Preview(name: 'Top-level preview')
Widget previews() => Text('Foo');
class MyWidget extends StatelessWidget {
@Preview(name: 'Constructor preview')
MyWidget.preview();
@Preview(name: 'Factory preview')
factory MyWidget.factoryPreview() => MyWidget.preview();
@Preview(name: 'Static preview')
static Widget previewStatic() => Text('Static');
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Text('MyWidget');
}
}
```
Users can also provide a `wrapper` function with the signature `Widget
Function(Widget)` to easily wrap previewed widget with shared
bootstrapping logic.
Example:
```dart
Widget testWrapper(Widget child) {
return Provider<int>.value(
value: 42,
child: child,
);
}
@Preview(name: 'Preview with wrapper', wrapper: testWrapper)
Widget preview() {
return Text('Attributes');
}
```
Which is effectively the same as:
```dart
@Preview(name: 'Preview with wrapper')
Widget preview() {
return Provider<int>.value(
value: 42,
child: Text('Attributes'),
);
}
```
Finally, for situations where a `BuildContext` is needed, users can
return a `WidgetBuilder` from their preview function:
```dart
@Preview('Builder preview')
WidgetBuilder builderPreview() {
return (BuildContext context) {
// TODO: retrieve state from context.
return Text('Foo');
};
}
```
`flutter widget-preview start --web` will cause the widget preview
scaffold to be run as a Flutter Web application using experimental hot
reload support. This will eventually be the default, with the desktop
environment being put behind a flag for use as a fallback under the
assumption that the desktop environment will be removed in the future.
With this change, `flutter widget-preview start` will launch a working
widget preview environment that can render previews from a target
project.
Also fixes an issue where `--offline` wasn't being respected by some pub
operations.
This also wires up the preview detector to trigger hot reloads when new
previews are detected or previews are removed.
Note: while this change results in lib/generated_preview.dart being
generated and updated, it's not currently referenced by lib/main.dart
and the preview environment will render a black screen.
