This was only necessary when the Engine had to build in multiple buildroots
where the sources where checked out at different paths relative to the
buildroot. This is no longer the case and there are already cases GN rules
have been written that mix and match variable usage with the direct
specification of the path to the Flutter sources relative to the sole buildroot.
Tonic used to be used by multiple consumers outside of Flutter Engine. Due to
this, it has an unnecessary abstraction layer as well as utilities duplicated in
FML and other engine subsystems. The sole user of Tonic is now the Flutter
Engine. It is intended that the Flutter Engine team now owns this subsystem,
remove unnecessary utilities and document the headers. This is the first step in
the transition. No history is being imported as the initial history was already
lost in the transition of this component to fuchsia.googlesource. As this
component was unmaintained there, I could see no additional value in importing
the history of the patches there.
No functional change. Just moved the repo from //third_party to
//flutter/third_party and updates GN refs.
The converters are still in a separate target that must be included manually. This allows targets that depend on FML but not Dart runtime not have to depend on the runtime.
Adds a test that includes this target and tests image decompression from assets. There is also a test for the standalone DartConvertor in shell_unittests but not in fml_unittests be cause FML uni-tests cannot yet launch a VM. I will work on adding fixtures for those.
