[windows] Implement merged UI and platform thread (#162935)
Original issue: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/150525

Thread merging is currently disabled by default. 
It is controlled from the application through `DartProject`:
```cpp
flutter::DartProject project(L"data");
// Enables running UI isolate on platform thread
project.set_merged_platform_ui_thread(true);
```
Required changes to windows embedder: 
- Resize synchronization no longer blocks on condition variable, instead
it polls the Flutter run loop (ignoring other windows messages) until
the frame is available. This way resize synchronization works with both
thread merging enabled and disabled.

Flutter Engine

Setting up the Engine development environment

See here

gclient bootstrap

Flutter engine uses gclient to manage dependencies.

If you've already cloned the flutter repository:

  1. Copy one of the engine/scripts/*.gclient to the root folder as .gclient:
    1. Googlers: copy rbe.gclient to enable faster builds with RBE
    2. Everyone else: copy standard.gclient
  2. run gclient sync from the root folder
