Initial PluginServer implementation

This is the core implementation of the "plugin server" that will support the API described at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T8P323DJxsc3YPzveNIaSKWFkrJp9ydTR4jp_XFb7XQ/edit?resourcekey=0-f8Ue29KMUizqXNGhATp1tg#heading=h.23fjh5hfm2is

This is heavily curbed from the ServerPlugin class at
`package:analyzer_plugin/plugin/plugin.dart`, but does not depend on it.
It depends on two concepts from the analyzer_plugin package: (1) the
protocol used for de/serializing requests, responses, etc. And (2) the
`PluginCommunicationChannel` class. This is also just a utility for
communicating between the analysis server and the plugin server.

This plugin server is capable of "registering" individual "plugins",
which allows plugins to register individual (maybe multiple) lint rules,
and individual (maybe multiple) quick fixes.

The plugin server for now only responds essentially to three requests:

* `ANALYSIS_REQUEST_SET_CONTEXT_ROOTS`
* `EDIT_REQUEST_GET_FIXES`
* `PLUGIN_REQUEST_VERSION_CHECK`

All files are analyzed during `handleAnalysisSetContextRoots`, and
quick fixes are calculated during `handleEditGetFixes`.

There are many TODOs, but the included test shows that this plugin
server can notify the analysis server of lint diagnostics to be
reported, and can respond to a query for quick fixes.

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).
