In the packaged ZIP files for Flutter we bundle mingit on Windows to make setup for our users easier (they don't have to download and install git anymore). This change makes Flutter use the bundled mingit if it is available and if git is not installed on the system.
This change will still require that users add `flutter\bin` to their path or they'll have to execute `flutter\bin\flutter.bat` directly. A follow-up PR will add a pre-configured Flutter Console that people can start with a double-click to minimize setup even further.
Also in this PR:
* If 7Zip is not available to unpack the Dart SDK try 7Zip's standalone version.
The purpose of this PR is to make it so that when the user runs 'flutter', if they have a .pub-cache directory in their flutter root, we use that instead of the default location for the pub cache. Otherwise, it should act as before.
The eventual goal is to support a pre-populated flutter .zip/.tar.gz file that has everything the developer needs in one bundle. In order for that to actually work, we need to have the pub cache be self-contained, and not in the user's home dir.
Another advantage of this is that if you have multiple flutter repos that you're switching between, then the versions in the pub cache will remain static when you switch between them.
This is an attempt to re-land: #13248. Includes a fix for the test that makes it work on bots in the presence of PUB_CACHE being set, and no other changes.
* Revert "Add tests."
This reverts commit 31bad961ff.
* Revert "Use .pub-cache from Flutter root, if it exists. (#13248)"
This reverts commit 72d6bcc3f7.

This consolidates all of the non-template .gitignore rules into the top level .gitignore, to ignore common things more broadly, with less maintenance needed for the .gitignore files. Does not touch the templates, so that they still produce needed .gitignores as part of flutter create.
Creates a new (hidden) flutter command 'ide-config' that will create and/or update
existing .iml files and some files under the .idea directory, as well as
removing existing *.iml files and the .idea directory.
It also:
* Adds *.iml to the .gitignore
* Removes existing .iml files from the repo, and moves them to the
packages/flutter_tools/ide_templates/intellij directory.
* Adds a flag to ide-config ('--update-templates') that will take any new .iml
files in the flutter tree and add them to the existing templates.
- If --overwrite is also specified, then all existing templates will also
be overwritten with the contents from the flutter tree, and any that have
been deleted from the flutter tree will also be removed from the
templates.
* Added new run configurations for all existing app targets that will now also
be automatically added to IntelliJ.
* Setting up the environment also includes setting the coding style guidelines
and the git VCS.
* Note that after this PR lands, Flutter developers will need to run it once to
re-create the .iml files and configuration files that have been removed.
After this PR lands, .iml files will no longer appear in the untracked files
section for git.
