This change reverts the following previous change:
Original Description:
Fixes https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/131435, #104594, #43400
Needs https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/48774 (to fix the web test failure).
Currently the method we use for text span hit testing `TextPainter.getPositionForOffset` always returns the closest `TextPosition`, even when the given offset is far away from the text.
The new TextPaintes method tells you the layout bounds (`width = letterspacing / 2 + x_advance + letterspacing / 2`, `height = font ascent + font descent`) of a character, the PR changes the hit testing implementation such that a TextSpan is only considered hit if the point-down event landed in one of it's character's layout bounds.
Potential issues:
1. In theory since the text is baseline aligned, we should use the max ascent and max descent of each character to calculate the height of the text span's hit-test region, in case some characters in the span have to fall back to a different font, but that will be slower and it typically doesn't make a huge difference.
This is a breaking change. It also introduces a new finder and a new method `WidgetTester.tapOnText`: `await tester.tapOnText('string to match')` for ease of migration.

* Added `performAction` to `SemanticsController` as well as specific methods for specific actions
* Added a `scrollable` finder to `find.semantics` as a convenience method for `findAny(<all scrollable actions>)`
* Updated `containsSemantics` and `matchSemantics` matchers to also work on `FinderBase<Semantics>`
Closes#112413
* Pulled `FinderBase` out of `Finder`
* `FinderBase` can be used for any object, not just elements
* Terminology was updated to be more "find" related
* Re-implemented `Finder` using `FinderBase<Element>`
* Backwards compatibility maintained with `_LegacyFinderMixin`
* Introduced base classes for SemanticsNode finders
* Introduced basic SemanticsNode finders through `find.semantics`
* Updated some relevant matchers to make use of the more generic `FinderBase`

This change enables Flutter to generate multiple Scenes to be rendered into separate FlutterViews from a single widget tree. Each Scene is described by a separate render tree, which are all associated with the single widget tree.
This PR implements the framework-side mechanisms to describe the content to be rendered into multiple views. Separate engine-side changes are necessary to provide these views to the framework and to draw the framework-generated Scene into them.
## Summary of changes
The details of this change are described in [flutter.dev/go/multiple-views](https://flutter.dev/go/multiple-views). Below is a high-level summary organized by layers.
### Rendering layer changes
* The `RendererBinding` no longer owns a single `renderView`. In fact, it doesn't OWN any `RenderView`s at all anymore. Instead, it offers an API (`addRenderView`/`removeRenderView`) to add and remove `RenderView`s that then will be MANAGED by the binding. The `RenderView` itself is now owned by a higher-level abstraction (e.g. the `RawView` Element of the widgets layer, see below), who is also in charge of adding it to the binding. When added, the binding will interact with the `RenderView` to produce a frame (e.g. by calling `compositeFrame` on it) and to perform hit tests for incoming pointer events. Multiple `RenderView`s can be added to the binding (typically one per `FlutterView`) to produce multiple Scenes.
* Instead of owning a single `pipelineOwner`, the `RendererBinding` now owns the root of the `PipelineOwner` tree (exposed as `rootPipelineOwner` on the binding). Each `PipelineOwner` in that tree (except for the root) typically manages its own render tree typically rooted in one of the `RenderView`s mentioned in the previous bullet. During frame production, the binding will instruct each `PipelineOwner` of that tree to flush layout, paint, semantics etc. A higher-level abstraction (e.g. the widgets layer, see below) is in charge of adding `PipelineOwner`s to this tree.
* Backwards compatibility: The old `renderView` and `pipelineOwner` properties of the `RendererBinding` are retained, but marked as deprecated. Care has been taken to keep their original behavior for the deprecation period, i.e. if you just call `runApp`, the render tree bootstrapped by this call is rooted in the deprecated `RendererBinding.renderView` and managed by the deprecated `RendererBinding.pipelineOwner`.
### Widgets layer changes
* The `WidgetsBinding` no longer attaches the widget tree to an existing render tree. Instead, it bootstraps a stand-alone widget tree that is not backed by a render tree. For this, `RenderObjectToWidgetAdapter` has been replaced by `RootWidget`.
* Multiple render trees can be bootstrapped and attached to the widget tree with the help of the `View` widget, which internally is backed by a `RawView` widget. Configured with a `FlutterView` to render into, the `RawView` creates a new `PipelineOwner` and a new `RenderView` for the new render tree. It adds the new `RenderView` to the `RendererBinding` and its `PipelineOwner` to the pipeline owner tree.
* The `View` widget can only appear in certain well-defined locations in the widget tree since it bootstraps a new render tree and does not insert a `RenderObject` into an ancestor. However, almost all Elements expect that their children insert `RenderObject`s, otherwise they will not function properly. To produce a good error message when the `View` widget is used in an illegal location, the `debugMustInsertRenderObjectIntoSlot` method has been added to Element, where a child can ask whether a given slot must insert a RenderObject into its ancestor or not. In practice, the `View` widget can be used as a child of the `RootWidget`, inside the `view` slot of the `ViewAnchor` (see below) and inside a `ViewCollection` (see below). In those locations, the `View` widget may be wrapped in other non-RenderObjectWidgets (e.g. InheritedWidgets).
* The new `ViewAnchor` can be used to create a side-view inside a parent `View`. The `child` of the `ViewAnchor` widget renders into the parent `View` as usual, but the `view` slot can take on another `View` widget, which has access to all inherited widgets above the `ViewAnchor`. Metaphorically speaking, the view is anchored to the location of the `ViewAnchor` in the widget tree.
* The new `ViewCollection` widget allows for multiple sibling views as it takes a list of `View`s as children. It can be used in all the places that accept a `View` widget.

As of July 5, 2023 this change passed a TAP global presubmit (TGP) in google3: tap/OCL:544707016:BASE:545809771:1688597935864:e43dd651
## Note to reviewers
This change is big (sorry). I suggest focusing the initial review on the changes inside of `packages/flutter` first. The majority of the changes describe above are implemented in (listed in suggested review order):
* `rendering/binding.dart`
* `widgets/binding.dart`
* `widgets/view.dart`
* `widgets/framework.dart`
All other changes included in the PR are basically the fallout of what's implemented in those files. Also note that a lot of the lines added in this PR are documentation and tests.
I am also very happy to walk reviewers through the code in person or via video call, if that is helpful.
I appreciate any feedback.
## Feedback to address before submitting ("TODO")
This PR contains a series of minor changes to address issues that I happened to run into:
- Pretty-print errors triggered when handling events that are pending because of having locked event handling. Previously these were just dumped to the console.
- Add more documentation for `debugPaintPadding`.
- Add documentation to `Tween` saying how to implement it.
- Slight formatting changes in the scrollbar code to align some expressions.
- Since we convert ScrollMetricsNotifications to ScrollNotifications in various places, provide an explicit API to do this. This will make the behaviour consistent throughout, and makes the code easier to understand. Added a test for this.
- Clarifications to some of the BindingBase and SchedulerBinding documentation.
- Clarified some documentation in `flutter_test`'s `Finder` class.
* Use `curly_braces_in_flow_control_structures` for `packages/flutter_driver`

* Use `curly_braces_in_flow_control_structures` for `packages/integration_test`
* fix indentation
* Update project.pbxproj files to say Flutter rather than Chromium
Also, the templates now have an empty organization so that we don't cause people to give their apps a Flutter copyright.
* Update the copyright notice checker to require a standard notice on all files
* Update copyrights on Dart files. (This was a mechanical commit.)
* Fix weird license headers on Dart files that deviate from our conventions; relicense Shrine.
Some were already marked "The Flutter Authors", not clear why. Their
dates have been normalized. Some were missing the blank line after the
license. Some were randomly different in trivial ways for no apparent
reason (e.g. missing the trailing period).
* Clean up the copyrights in non-Dart files. (Manual edits.)
Also, make sure templates don't have copyrights.
* Fix some more ORGANIZATIONNAMEs
* Minor improvements to framework documentation.
* maybePop documentation fix
* Mark some flutter_test arguments required.
Without these set, we get a crash.
* Minor correction to ListView docs
* add trailing commas on list/map/parameters
* add trailing commas on Invocation with nb of arg>1
* add commas for widget containing widgets
* add trailing commas if instantiation contains trailing comma
* revert bad change
