Start removing Observatory support and references (#169216)
This change removes references to Observatory, including:

 - Deprecated flags
 - Deprecated embedder APIs
 - Outdated documentation
 - Documentation instances where "VM service" should have been used
 - Incorrectly named tests / directories

As a part of this change, `--serve-observatory` is no longer a valid
flag.

Observatory is still available for now via the `_serveObservatory` RPC,
but will be removed in a follow up PR once we've prepared for breakages
in G3.

Work towards https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/50233

Flutter Engine

Setting up the Engine development environment

See here

gclient bootstrap

Flutter engine uses gclient to manage dependencies.

If you've already cloned the flutter repository:

  1. Copy one of the engine/scripts/*.gclient to the root folder as .gclient:
    1. Googlers: copy rbe.gclient to enable faster builds with RBE
    2. Everyone else: copy standard.gclient
  2. run gclient sync from the root folder
