This pull request is created by [automatic cherry pick workflow](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/releases/Flutter-Cherrypick-Process.md#automatically-creates-a-cherry-pick-request)
Please fill in the form below, and a flutter domain expert will evaluate this cherry pick request.

### Issue Link:
What is the link to the issue this cherry-pick is addressing?

https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/177992
https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/175606

### Impact Description:
What is the impact (ex. visual jank on Samsung phones, app crash, cannot ship an iOS app)?
Does it impact development (ex. flutter doctor crashes when Android Studio is installed),
or the shipping of production apps (the app crashes on launch).
This information is for domain experts and release engineers to understand the consequences of saying yes or no to the cherry pick.

The issues listed above impact app users. For instance #177992 prevents the user from interacting with hamburger menus on iPadOS 26.1+ for context, this probably has always been an issue but on iPadOS 26.1 the height of the status bar became taller so it gets in the way of the hamburger menu.

* In one line that is accessible to most Flutter developers.
* That describes the state prior to the fix.
* That includes which platforms are impacted.
See [best practices](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/releases/Hotfix-Documentation-Best-Practices.md) for examples.
