This re-lands #49235 with the addition of includeSemantics flag on the Focus widget so that the FocusTraversalGroup can create a Focus widget without affecting the semantics tree.
The FocusTraversalGroup uses the Focus widget to create a grouping of descendants for traversal, but doesn't actually participate in focus (canRequestFocus is always false), so we don't want it to add a Semantics widget in that case, since that can cause semantics changes. The canRequestFocus attribute can also be used when a widget is disabled, so we do sometimes want to include Semantics even if that is false, but not in the case where it is always false, as for FocusTraversalGroup.
- Added a test to make sure that FocusTraversalGroup doesn't add any semantics information.
This change adds a way to provide explicit focus order for a part of the widget tree.
It adds FocusTraversalPolicyGroup, which in many ways is similar to DefaultFocusTraversal, except that it groups a widget subtree together so that those nodes are traversed as a group. DefaultFocusTraversal doesn't work as one would expect: If there is more than one DefaultFocusTraversal inside of a focus scope, the policy can change depending on which node was asked to move "next", which can cause unexpected behavior. The new grouping mechanism doesn't have that problem. I deprecate DefaultFocusTraversal in this PR.
It also adds OrderedFocusTraversalPolicy, which is a policy that can be supplied to FocusTraversalPolicyGroup to set the policy for a sub-tree. It looks for FocusTraversalOrder inherited widgets, which use a FocusOrder to do the sorting. FocusOrder has two subclasses: NumericalFocusOrder (which sorts based on a double), and LexicalFocusOrder, which sorts based on a String.
As part of doing this, I refactored the way FocusTraversalPolicy is implemented so that it has more default implementation methods, and exposes a new protected member: sortDescendants, which makes it easier for developers to make their own policy subclasses: they only need to implement sortDescendants to get a new ordering behavior, but can also still override any of the default implementation behaviors if they need different behavior.
I was able to do this without breaking the API (AFAICT).
This PR modifies the existing API docs samples to use DartPad so that all of the samples are now interactive apps on the API docs site.
It also removes the restriction for the max width of the description area so that the dartpad region can expand horizontally.
I updated the first paragraph on the API docs to indicate that Flutter is more than just mobile now (same text as the README.md at the top level).
I modified a few of the examples so that they looked nicer, and fit better on the page.
I added the sample description text above each DartPad instance, since that often defines the context of the example.
I removed animations and images when they were redundant with the sample content. There were a few that made sense to keep, so I did.
