Breaking change: removed deprecated methods of PlatformMessages, leaving only binary messaging there. All other use of platform communication now goes through PlatformMessageChannel and PlatformMethodChannels. Retained use of String and JSON codecs for now.
Companion engine PR: flutter/engine#3482
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.
* 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.
* 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
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.

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.
1. Add `PortScanner` abstraction so that we don't do actual port scanning
in tests.
2. Don't change the real `cwd` of the isolate during tests, as it affects
all tests, not just the current running test.
Fixes#8761
- [x] Add custom logic on MacOS to determine if Java is installed before invoking `java`.
- [x] Check JAVA_HOME, platform specific logic, and finally PATH to locate the `java` executable.
- [x] Improved doctor messages.
