The C++ wrapper's plugin registrar can own plugins to provided lifetime
management. However, plugins expect the registrar to be valid for the
life of the object, including during destruction, so any owned plugins
must be explicitly cleared before any registrar-specific destruction
happens.

Makes BinaryMessenger available from FlutterEngine, rather than just the plugin registrar. This allows for method channels directly in applications without building them as plugins, and matches the other platforms.
Requires some restructuring of code and GN targets in the client wrappers to make the internals in the shared section usable by the implementations of platform-specific parts of the wrappers. Also fixes a latent issue with EnableInputBlocking symbols being declared but not defined for Windows that came up during testing of the restructing.

This does some long-overdue refactoring of the spaghetti code that grew in the GLFW embedding to begin providing a clearer separation between the engine and the window. It is now possible to register plugins, and run the runloop, on a headless engine, which makes headless mode much more usable. This is useful in some automated testing environments.
There is more refactoring that should be done in the future, but this is a good incremental point to stop as the PR is already large, and it provides useful new functionality as-is.
Adds a flag to create non-resizeable windows.
Since the number of parameters is getting awkward, extracts
window-related parameters and engine-related parameters into structs for
clarity. This also removes some duplication in method signatures.
The window parameters struct change is also made to the C++ wrapper,
making this a breaking change for the runners.

Rather than running the runloop forever, have the API expose an incremental runloop. This allows clients to do other processing if they need it.
This allows for removing the odd construction of having knowledge of GTK event handling built into the library even though nothing in the library uses it; instead runner applications that use GTK plugins (such as FDE's testbed) can do that processing at the application level instead.
Adds methods to get and set the window size, as well as to query the
window's scale factor. This is useful both for custom clients, and for
building a window resize plugin to prototype what will eventually likely
be a system channel.
Plugins may need to be able to access functions affecting the GLFW
window (e.g., a plugin to resize the window). This restructures the API
to create a distinction at both the C and C++ level between the window
controller, which provides access to high-level behaviors driving the
Flutter application, and the window, which provides access to functions
to affect the UI state of the window (i.e., wrapped GLFWwindow
functions).
Also provides a PluginRegistrar extension for plugins that need access
to GLFW-specific functionality.
Changes include:
- File structure
- Header guards
- Include paths
- Namespaces
- Integration with the engine's GN build
- Conversion from jsoncpp to rapidjson
- Style and clang-format adjustment to match engine repository
