[vm] Fix expression evaluation in context of closures When evaluating an expressino at a breakpoint that's inside a closure, the closure may refer to anything it closes over. That includes the `this` from an enclosing method. So depending on whether a closure's parent chain is an instance method or a static method, the expression evaluation function is going to be an instance method or a static method. => We walk up the parent chain to determine the correct enclosing class. => This avoids making a Type object with a cid from a top-level class (see [0]) Handling this correctly will now try to get the `this` when invoking an eval function that has an enclosing instance method. Though we may often have "<optimized out>" the `this` (e.g. due to not capturing it in closure context chain). => We still allow running the expression evaluation function in this case, but only if the expression being evaluated doesn't access `this`. A similar issue occurs when trying to use variables in the eval expression that the closure didn't capture. This results in a confusing CFE compile-time error. This is a separate issue and tracked in [1]. => We update the test to distinuish the cases that this CL makes passing and those that are failing due to [1].

Dart is:
Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation.
Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app.
Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web.
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).
Dart is free and open source.
