This reverts commit 0d5f2e901d1953d04eb45004666d34a4537a0060.
Due to merge conflicts, this also reverts #22275:
Revert "Do not involve external_view_embedder in submit frame process if threads are not merged. (#22275)"
This reverts commit 016fbde1bb275288242e2cf097b52af1dd66ab06.
This (mostly) re-lands #21163, which was reverted in #22321
This switches from using onKeyDown to using dispatchKeyEvent on Android so that keys can be intercepted handled by the framework and not continue to be dispatched to other controls.
It also now intercepts key events sent to InputConnection.sendKeyEvent, as some IMEs do (e.g. the Hacker's Keyboard), and sends them to Flutter.
This fixes the problem where (for example) pressing TAB on a hardware keyboard sends the tab to both the text field and to the focus traversal system.
Note that we still can't intercept all keystrokes given to a soft keyboard, only those which the soft keyboard decides to send to InputConnection.sendKeyEvent, and system keys (like the back button) are only received if the IME doesn't eat them.
This re-lands #21163, which was reverted in #22004
Now that flutter/flutter#67359 has landed, this change will no longer cause spaces (and other shortcuts) to be ignored in text fields if there is no action associated with the intent, even if there is a shortcut key mapping to an intent.
It also no longer causes web test failures (as far as I can tell without submitting it: the same tests don't fail locally).
Here's the original PR description:

Switches the Linux embedding from the standard C API to the new proctable version, to allow for unit testing of the embedding layer separately from the embedder APIs implementation.
Currently, the Linux embedder does not handle window exposure events.
This is typically not a problem for users who use compositing window
managers, since they keep the display buffers even if the window is
completely covered. However, for users that don't use a compositor, the
window will not be redrawn by the engine if it was previously covered
until another event triggers the redraw.
This patch implements the GtkWidget draw callback to handle window
exposure events. The callback doesn't actually draw anything, it just
schedule a frame for drawing by the engine.
The engine doesn't support exposure events, so instead, we force redraw
by sending a window metrics event of the same geometry. Since the
geometry didn't change, only a frame will be scheduled.
Switches the Windows embedding from the standard C API to the new proctable version, to allow for unit testing of the embedding layer separately from the embedder APIs implementation. This includes moving some engine messaging that was still in flutter_windows to the C++ engine class to better encapsulate the proc table.
Converts the macOS embedding to use the new proc table version of the embedding API, and adds one example unit test using it to demonstrate and validate the approach.
The framework handles arrow keys, delete, and backspace (and with better
unicode support), so we shouldn't handle them at the embedding level.
Fixes#69202
Fix incorrect parameter used for self object
Rename the GWeakNotify function parameters.
This matches the prototype and makes it harder to accidentally use the object
parameter the wrong way.
The Flutter framework now has handling for arrow keys and backspace
in its editable text, so they no longer need to be handled in the
embedding. This not only avoids duplicate work, but improves the
handling of complex unicode (surrogate pairs, grapheme clusters) which
are currently correctly handled in the framework but not the macOS
embedding.
