Replace change builder copying with a transactional model

Copying change builders in order to enable reverting changes from a
single correction producer when there's an exception is expensive.

This CL replaces that implementation with a transactional model.
Clients are not required to start a transaction (that happens
automatically), but are required to signal the end of a transaction by
invoking either `commit` or `revert`. (Actually, `commit` is assumed
if neither method is invoked before computing the `SourceChange`.)

There is some information in the Dart file edit builder related to
imports that isn't correctly handled. The reason for this is that too
much of the import computation is done up-front. I don't think this
will be a problem in practice (or at least not often), but we should
come back at some point to change the implementation so that we retain
abstract data longer and perform more processing at the very end (where
we'll have complete information and probably be able to do a better
job anyway).

This CL improved the performance of the benchmark that adds and applies
fixes for 10,000 lint violations.

  Before it took an average of 11216.0 ms.
  After it took an average of 4200.2 ms.

Which is about a 62% improvement.

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).
