Summary of Changes

Hello @naylinndev, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request focuses on upgrading the underlying VLC library for the Android platform to its latest experimental version, which necessitated substantial refactoring of the existing codebase to align with the new API. It also includes updates to various development dependencies and SDK versions, ensuring the project remains current with the Flutter and Android ecosystems. The primary goal is to leverage the improvements and future capabilities offered by the updated VLC library.

Highlights

• Android VLC Library Update: The core VLC library for Android (libvlc-all) has been significantly updated from version 3.6.0-eap14 to 4.0.0-eap21. This is a major version bump that required extensive code changes to maintain compatibility.
• API Compatibility Adjustments: Due to the VLC 4.0 update, many media track-related methods (for audio, video, and SPU) have been removed or temporarily replaced with placeholders in FlutterVlcPlayer.java. These methods will require reimplementation based on the new VLC 4.0 API. Additionally, video dimension retrieval now uses the texture view directly, and the seekTo method now accepts a long type.
• Kotlin and Flutter SDK Updates: The Kotlin version used in the Android build has been updated to 2.1.0, and the project's Dart and Flutter SDK environment constraints have been raised to >=3.8.0.
• Pigeon Tooling Update: The pigeon dependency has been updated to a much newer major version (from ^0.2.4 to ^26.0.1), and the configurePigeon function has been removed from messages.dart, indicating changes in how Pigeon code generation is handled.

Code Review

This pull request updates the native Android VLC library to a new major version (4.0 EAP), which is a significant change. This also required updating Kotlin and other dependencies. A major consequence is that many features related to audio, video, and subtitle track management have been temporarily disabled because of breaking API changes in libvlc. While this makes the plugin compile, it's a significant feature regression that needs to be addressed. Additionally, it appears that the auto-generated files from the pigeon package update are missing, which is a critical issue. The PR also includes several other improvements and cleanups.

@illia-romanenko I made a pull request #547 . In this request, I fixed the audio track and subtitle track issues on Android after updating to VLC v4.0.0, and also fixed the issue where the example app couldn’t run.

Thanks @alohadance98 - can you please submit another one - I'll merge. For some reason I can't reopen this one :(
