Code Review
This pull request updates the documentation for ScrollController and ScrollMetrics to clarify that maxScrollExtent may be an estimate for lazy scrollables like ListView.builder. Feedback was provided to improve the precision of the documentation by explaining that animation targets are fixed at the start and clarifying that Scrollable.ensureVisible requires the target child to be built.

Issue: Fixes flutter#94925. `ScrollMetrics.maxScrollExtent` can be surprising for lazily built scrollables because it may be an estimate until more children are laid out, so animating to the current max extent after adding offscreen content may stop before the newly added child. Fix: Clarifies the `ScrollMetrics.maxScrollExtent` docs to call out lazy scrollable estimates, and adds a practical note to `ScrollController.animateTo` about using `Scrollable.ensureVisible` when the goal is to reveal a specific child. Tests: Documentation-only change. Verified with: - `./bin/dart format packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/scroll_controller.dart packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/scroll_metrics.dart` - `./bin/flutter analyze packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/scroll_controller.dart packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/scroll_metrics.dart` - `git diff --check` Risk: Limited to API documentation in two widgets library files. No behavior, generated output, or test fixture changes. Co-authored-by: Mohellebi Abdessalem <[email protected]>
