Currently outline transformations aren't run via the incremental compiler which causes problems in https://dart-review.googlesource.com/c/sdk/+/491702 which fixes it by calling the current transformation in the incremental compiler. This calls it twice though (because it's run again in `frontend_server/lib/compute_kernel.dart`, but removing it there doesn't work because a filtering is done which doesn't apply through the incremental compiler. This CL splits up the outline transformation stage into a call that can actually transform the libraries and one that can do the filtering, which should fix the issue.

Dart Kernel
Dart Kernel is a small high-level language derived from Dart. It is designed for use as an intermediate format for whole-program analysis and transformations, and to be consumed by codegen and execution backends.
The kernel language has an in-memory representation in Dart and can be serialized as binary or text.
Both the kernel language and its implementations are unstable and are under development.
This package contains the Dart part of the implementation and contains:
- A transformable IR for the kernel language
- Serialization of kernel code
Note: The APIs in this package are in an early state; developers should be careful about depending on this package. In particular, there is no semver contract for release versions of this package. Please depend directly on individual versions.
See ast.dart for the in-memory IR, or binary.md for a description of the binary format. For now, the textual format is very ad-hoc and cannot be parsed back in.
