Paul Berry bd65b86ada [analyzer_cli] Migrate to new constructor decl syntax.
(Part of https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/63288)

This change migrates the analyzer_cli package to use the new
constructor declaration syntax, described in
https://github.com/dart-lang/language/blob/main/accepted/future-releases/primary-constructors/feature-specification.md#abbreviations-of-in-body-constructor-declarations.

This change was performed in an automated fashion, by (a) bumping the
package's SDK constraint to `3.13.0-0`, (b) enabling the lints
`unnecessary_type_name_in_constructor` and
`unnecessary_const_in_enum_constructor`, (c) fixing the resulting lint
failures using `dart fix`, and then (d) reformatting the affected
files.

To ease code review, I've reverted unrelated formatting changes.

SDK development code analysis

dartanalyzer used to be the tool for statically analyzing dart code at the command line. However, this tool has been replaced with dart analyze for this purpose in current SDKs and will no longer be published on pub.

Do not depend on the command line interface or other semantics in this directory as it is now an internal tool for SDK development, used as the dart2analyzer "compiler" for tools/test.py in the SDK. It is configured as part of the test runner, here.

SDK development usage

For SDK development, run analysis from the test tool to validate analysis conclusions on language samples in the testing directory. From the root of the SDK:

tools/test.py --build --use-sdk -c dart2analyzer co19 language

This will build the Dart VM and compile dartanalyzer into a snapshot, then use that snapshot while analyzing those directories under testing/. Without --use-sdk, test.py will use the source code version of the analyzer instead of the compiled one, which can be useful for debugging.
