`flutter build aar`
This new build command works just like `flutter build apk` or `flutter build appbundle`, but for plugin and module projects.
This PR also refactors how plugins are included in app or module projects. By building the plugins as AARs, the Android Gradle plugin is able to use Jetifier to translate support libraries into AndroidX libraries for all the plugin's native code. Thus, reducing the error rate when using AndroidX in apps.
This change also allows to build modules as AARs, so developers can take these artifacts and distribute them along with the native host app without the need of the Flutter tool. This is a requirement for add to app.
`flutter build aar` generates POM artifacts (XML files) which contain metadata about the native dependencies used by the plugin. This allows Gradle to resolve dependencies at the app level. The result of this new build command is a single build/outputs/repo, the local repository that contains all the generated AARs and POM files.
In a Flutter app project, this local repo is used by the Flutter Gradle plugin to resolve the plugin dependencies. In add to app case, the developer needs to configure the local repo and the dependency manually in `build.gradle`:
repositories {
maven {
url "<path-to-flutter-module>build/host/outputs/repo"
}
}
dependencies {
implementation("<package-name>:flutter_<build-mode>:1.0@aar") {
transitive = true
}
}

This disables the Firebase Test Lab release smoke test, I think it's failing for reasons that probably don't have to do with the commit that started failing (which I think is dd51afd).
This is blocking autoroll of flutter/engine@b7b791b which fixes a TODAY bug: #36079
This is the first step in getting esoteric devices wired
up to device lab to ensure that we can at least start Flutter
apps in profile mode on such devices.

This PR created a main page for platform view tests in the android views testing app. The main page none contains a list of the links to the pages being tested. It puts the android view motion events tests to a sub page.
The PR also added iOS related files to get ready for adding the iOS platform views tests.
This updates the flutter tool cache to download binary files for ideviceinstaller, ios-deploy, libimobiledevice, and dynamically linked dependencies from Flutter's GCP bucket.

This adds an "anchor button" to each of the samples so that the user can link to individual samples instead of having to link to just the page. Clicking on the anchor button jumps to the anchor, as well as copying the anchor URL to the clipboard.
There is some oddness in the implementation: because dartdoc uses a <base> tag, the href for the link can't just be "#id", it has to calculate the URL from the current window href. I do that in the onmouseenter and onclick because onload doesn't get triggered for <a> tags (and onmouseenter doesn't get triggered for mobile platforms), but I still want the href to be updated before someone right-clicks it to copy the URL.
