The problem has been fixed upstream in the Dart VM.

This simplifies our setup instructions on Windows (will update the wiki).
Furthermore, this also means that going forward there is no diffrence between PowerShell and Cmd for the Flutter experience on Windows.

Function keys don't work great on any platform we support:
* Mac doesn't have first-class function keys.
* On Ubuntu: F1 opens the system help and F10 opens the file dialog.
* ... and Windows is a mess as well.

It's no longer needed with the latest Dart SDK roll.

Fixes: https://github.com/flutter/flutter-intellij/issues/808

Fixes: #8812

* Only run pod install if CocoaPods v1.0.0 or greater is installed.

Avoid issues with older versions of CocoaPods breaking the build. Users who genuinely use older versions of CocoaPods will have to run pod install manually when required.

* Update iOS part of flutter_view to use the new platform message channel

* remove newline

* comments

* devicelab benchmarks run on Windows

* fix analyzer issue

* fix test

* fix pubspec

- [x] Don't use package:stack_trace.
- [x] Don't use Chain.capture.
- [x] Fix an instance of aggressive catching of exceptions

Fixes #6207

* Make ProcessSignals portable

This removes the need to wrap unsupported signals with in `if (!platform.isWindows) ..`.

It also allows us to implement a work around for breaking the Windows console when flutter is exited with Ctrl+C.

* review comments

* adding tests

* add license header

Some Windows Versions close the entire shell if EXIT is called without
/B.

This also adds retry logic for downloading the Dart SDK.

Changed the default build output directory in the new project template
to build/, instead of android/build/ and android/app/build/.

Updated tools to ask the Gradle scripts what the build directory is,
since this is configurable in the build scripts, and we need to know
where the build output actually is.

Silenced output from 'flutter build aot' when invoked from Gradle, since
the output was confusing in this case.

Fixes #8723
Fixes #8656
Fixes #8138

That's the only shard that computes new coverage data.

Also, add a few other random dartdocs that I encountered along the way.

There aren't any subclasses of Element that don't also subclass
BuildableElement and I suspect they wouldn't work properly anyway.

Fixes #3656

This change make it easier to track the position of the scroll view without
having to worry about the position object changing out from under the
controller.

The new name follows the pattern of the name suggesting which layout
protocol the parent expects the child to speak.

Fixes #8664

macOS counterpart to c670cd9e.

The new name matches the style guide. (The old name was just old and predated
the style guide.)

Fixes #8000
