Ensure Example Packages Work on Android API 36

[jesswrd]

Ensured the example plugin apps on Android work on Android API 36 by updating configurations and sucessfully running flutter build apk (means the app can successfully build + all dependencies are resolvable). For compatibility with Android API 36, the example plugin apps on Android should have the following configurations:

targetSdk: 36
compileSdk: 36
AGP version: 8.9.1
Gradle version: 8.11.1

Most packages no longer require a manual bump of targetSdk and compileSdk due to usage of values from Flutter Gradle Plugin. Below is a list of example plugin apps on Android:

• third_party/flutter_svg/example/android
• flutter_plugin_android_lifecycle/example/android
• path_provider/path_provider/example/android

Looks like the new toolchain is triggering some new lints that will need to be resolved.

For posterity, How did you update these projects? Did you use the android studio tool for updating the project or did you do something else?

I updated them manually. The values were dervied from the sdk 36 minimums from android docs here. I think to use the AGP upgrade tool, you would have to open each android project separately.

@jesswrd Were you unable to get dart script/tool/bin/flutter_plugin_tools.dart update-dependency --android-dependency <dependency> --version <version> to work? Asking because I was hoping it could help simplify this for you! And I definitely wanna try fixing it if it's broken.

Before I started manually updating, I looked into the command you suggested. I concluded I didn't need to use it for my purposes because compileSdk and targetSdk in examples do not need to be updated anymore due to usage of Flutter Grade Plugin.

I actually didn't see you could use that command to update Gradle on my first pass. I just tried it and it works well. It doesn't look like the update dependency command includes updating AGP for example apps. May be worthwhile to add. jk it's already a todo.
