Update Android plugin templates for newer AGP (#156533)
Now that Flutter requires AGP 7+, we can use Java 11 as the compatibility version in the plugin template rather than 1.8, avoiding warnings with newer toolchains, and we can remove the check for 'namespace' existing that was only necessary to support AGP 4.1.

See also https://github.com/flutter/packages/pull/7795 which made this change in Flutter-team-owned plugins.

This directory contains templates for flutter create.

The *_shared subdirectories provide files for multiple templates.

  • app_shared for app and skeleton.
  • plugin_shared for (method channel) plugin and plugin_ffi.

For example, there are two app templates: app (the counter app) and skeleton (the more advanced list view/detail view app).

  ┌────────────┐
  │ app_shared │
  └──┬──────┬──┘
     │      │
     │      │
     ▼      ▼
┌─────┐    ┌──────────┐
│ app │    │ skeleton │
└─────┘    └──────────┘

Thanks to app_shared, the templates for app and skeleton can contain only the files that are specific to them alone, and the rest is automatically kept in sync.
