CQ. Extract ElementBindingVisitor from ResolutionVisitor.

ResolutionVisitor previously mixed two responsibilities: binding AST
nodes to prebuilt elements (via ElementWalker) and performing name/type
resolution. This change extracts the binding work into a dedicated
ElementBindingVisitor and makes ResolutionVisitor assume fragments and
annotations are already attached.

- Add ElementBindingVisitor to attach declaredFragment/elementAnnotation
  for declarations, parameters, local variables, labels, and generic
  function types, and to synthesize metadata when needed.
- Run the binding visitor up-front in LibraryAnalyzer and in summary
  resolvers (AstResolver/ConstructorInitializerResolver) when resolving
  isolated subtrees such as annotations, expressions, and initializers.
- Simplify ResolutionVisitor by removing ElementWalker/ElementHolder
  plumbing and focusing it on name/type resolution and AST rewrites.
- Harden visitors that may see unbound nodes in recovery by
  short-circuiting when declared fragments are missing, and use
  enclosingElement for local-parameter checks.

This separation improves maintainability and enables correct partial
resolution by ensuring local fragments and metadata exist before the
resolver runs.

Dart

An approachable, portable, and productive language for high-quality apps on any platform

Dart is:

  • Approachable: Develop with a strongly typed programming language that is consistent, concise, and offers modern language features like null safety and patterns.

  • Portable: Compile to ARM, x64, or RISC-V machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Compile to JavaScript or WebAssembly for the web.

  • Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app. Diagnose app issues using DevTools.

Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:

  • Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.

  • Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
