--unsafe-package-serialization saves the frontend_server from having to
re-serialize everything all the time.
Before this CL, though, things could go wrong:
If you had a situation where you had previously compiled a file that
depend on a package A, and where (some of) package A depends on
package B this would happen:
- All of package A was serialized together.
- All of package B was serialized together.
When later, you compile something that depend less on package A - namely
on only on parts that does not depend on package B, but is included in
the previously serialized package A, the following would happen:
- The new (non-package) libraries would be serialized.
- Package A serialization would be reused.
This is basically fine: Running the app would be fine, everything it
actually depend on is there.
However, if the VM is forced to compile everything it now also compiles
stuff that was included - but really unused - from package A - namely
also the libraries that depend on package B --- which is not included.
This CL changes the last part by also including package B.
The result is that even more unused libraries are included, but that
the VM can survive a forceful compile.
Note that the --unsafe-package-serialization is only used for tests,
so the "including even more unused" part is probably not a big deal,
and all in all there's still a big speed advantage to doing this.

Also, convert package:vm to use onDiagnostic.
We're consolidating all dependencies on package:front_end in one file per tool.
The idea is, if you want to depend on something in the package:front_end, you modify pkg/front_end/lib/src/api_unstable/vm.dart and consult with the front-end team.
These consolidated files will help us when designing a public API in the future.

This CL introduces an option - unsafe-package-serialization - where a
caller can select to reuse the serialization of packages. This makes it
unsafe in general, but if never invalidating packages, such as in tests,
it can be used to greatly increase the speed of processing many inputs.
This change - used in flutter - takes the time it takes to run
`flutter test` in `packages/flutter` from ~2 minutes 30 seconds to
~1 minute 15 seconds (on my machine).
A change to how flutter test executes the frontend_server
(to pass the option) is needed for it to take effect though.

When invalidating changed files in frontend server, the state prior to
this CL was that a continue would jump to the next byte, not the next file
after it had seen that the file had changed. Thus it could possibly
invalidate the same file several times.

The `@pragma` annotation on `vmservice_io.main` is modified to only mark it as a
root on non-product builds. Since the annotation is evaluated in the constant
transformation, we need to thread a flag through `gen_kernel.dart` indicating
whether the Kernel produced should target a product precompiler.
# Test Plan
Tested locally on Flutter. Unfortunately it's not possible to test the scenario where
`vmservice_io` is not included, since we don't have any "product" bots. Soon the
flag will be introduced into Flutter, and we will have some coverage from there.

This CL updates the frontend_server to allow specifying what dill
file to initialize from.
Normally, it tries to initialize from the same dill file as is the
output. This is fine in many cases (e.g. flutter run always says it
should output to build/app.dill): The first time it compiles
everything, subsequent times (across restarts) it only recompiles
what's needed.
When running tests, however, the output is in a temporary directory,
so it doesn't work across restarts. The startup time for tests is
always rather high, because it always has to recompile everything.
This CL updates the frontend_server to allow specifying what dill
file to initialize from. Flutter can thus save the compiled test
file in a centralized location (e.g. build/test.dill) and load from
that across restarts.
Plumbing this into flutter yields the following result, when running
a single test (the one automatically created when creating a new
flutter project):
Before: ~5.5 seconds
Now, first run: ~5.5 second (unchanged)
Now, subsequent runs: ~3.4 seconds
Approximate breakdown:
Startup cost (e.g. if there's no test directory): ~ 800 ms
Starting up the actual frontend server: ~150 ms
Reading source from old dill, loading all relevant files
and invalidating source: ~ 300 ms
Compiling everything (or, rather, nothing as it's all
from the dill at this point): ~ 650 ms
Serializing: ~ 250 ms
Copying files: ~ 50 ms
Running the actual test: ~1100 ms
Total: ~3300 ms
`time flutter test --local-engine=host_debug --preview-dart-2`
says ~3.4 seconds...
To compare, --no-preview-dart-2 takes ~2.2 seconds,
so dart2 still has a (significantly) higher startup cost.
Moves the needle on https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/15767.

This change adds experimental option '--import-dill' to front-end server
to specify existing kernel file to import when compiling a new one.
Newly generated kernel file will depend on the imported one and will
omit libraries available in the imported dill file, as well as platform
libraries.
Caveat: the new option is not compatible with '--incremental'.
