Started using FlutterEngineGroups by default on Android #37822

gaaclarke · 2022-11-21T23:23:54Z

Also started made the group accessible to plugins. There are a few important plugins that spawn new engines that run in the background, this will allow them to share the isolate group across the whole app. I avoided deprecating FlutterEngine constructors until we get wider acceptance from the team.

cc @xster since this may have ramifications for google usage of flutter
cc @stuartmorgan since this changes the plugin interface
cc @reidbaker since it is a big shift for Android

Switching the reviewer to reid since jason isn't available. Feel free to delegate to someone else.

From Triage: @jason-simmons is unable to review this. Redirecting to @reidbaker .

+1. I think we should do this by default. @jiahaog, this affects a bit the custom engine holders we have. I think nothing materially right out the gate, but we should also hold the engine group as well as the engine so users can easily spawn new engines from the same group.

The new plugin API LGTM.
