Updates `compileSdk`, `targetSdk`, and `ndk` versions (former 2 to latest, latter to the version of the ndk we are hosting on CIPD). Summary of changes: - Updates mentioned template values - `compileSdk` 35 requires AGP 8.0+, so updated to 8.1 in many places. - This also necessitated Gradle upgrades in most places - This also necessitated moving the `package` xml attribute to the AGP `namespace` field in a couple places (test + template). - Some tests use the output of `flutter create` but then use intentionally lower AGP versions. [I downgraded the `compileSdk` in these tests.](fee34fd61a
) - [Stopped lockfile generation](82324a2570
) script from hitting the `hello_world` example because it uses `.kts` gradle files. - One test needed [some Gradle options we had already added to templates](6aa187b4b6
).
microbenchmarks
To run these benchmarks on a device, first run `flutter logs' in one window to see the device logs, then, in a different window, run any of these:
flutter run --release lib/gestures/velocity_tracker_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/gestures/gesture_detector_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/animation_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/build_bench.dart
flutter run --release lib/stocks/layout_bench.dart
The results should be in the device logs.
Avoid changing names of the benchmarks
Each microbenchmark is identified by a name, for example, "catmullrom_transform_iteration". Changing the name of an existing microbenchmarks will effectively remove the old benchmark and create a new one, losing the historical data associated with the old benchmark in the process.
