Chris Bracken 0ee3f57a10 Build Flutter app as a framework on iOS (#8971)
**THIS IS A BREAKING CHANGE.** See below for migration steps for
existing projects.

Previously, Flutter app code was built as a raw dylib on iOS.  Dynamic
libraries outside of a framework bundle are not supported on iOS, except
for the system Swift libraries provided by Xcode.

* Migrates Xcode build from app.dylib to App.framework
* Migrates flutter create template
* Migrates example projects

Migration steps for existing projects
=====================================

The following steps should be taken from the root of your Flutter
project:

1. Edit `ios/.gitignore`: add `/Flutter/App.framework` on a new line.
2. In the Xcode project navigator, remove `app.dylib` from the Flutter
   folder. Delete this file from the `ios/Flutter` directory in your project.
3. Run a build to generate `ios/Flutter/App.framework`. From the command
   line, run `flutter build ios`. If you have not configured app signing
   in Xcode, an alternative method is to open the simulator, then run
   `flutter run -d iP`.
4. In the Xcode project navigator, select the `Runner` project. In the
   project settings that are displayed in the main view, ensure that the
   `Runner` target is selected. You can verify this by exposing the
   sidebar using the [| ] icon in the upper-left corner of the main
   view.
5. Select the *General* tab in the project settings. Under the
   *Embedded Binaries* section, click '+' to add `App.framework`. In the
   sheet that drops down, click the *Add Other...* button. Navigate to
   the `ios/Flutter` directory and select `App.framework`. Click *Open*.
   In the sheet that drops down, select *Create folder references*, then
   click *Finish*.
6. In the project settings, verify that `App.framework` has been added to the
   *Embedded Binaries* and *Linked Frameworks and Libraries* lists.
7. In the Xcode project navigator, drag `App.framework` under the
   Flutter folder.
8. In the Xcode project navigator, select `Flutter` then from the
   *File* menu, select *Add Files to "Runner"...*. Navigate to the
   `ios/Flutter` directory, select `AppFrameworkInfo.plist` and click
   the *Add* button.
9. From the command line, in your project directory, run
   `flutter build clean`, then `flutter run`.

At this point your project should be fully migrated.
