Description

This PR simplifies BindingBase.registerServiceExtension by removing the synthetic injection of result['type'] = '_extensionType' and result['method'] = method.

Background

  • result['type'] = '_extensionType' was introduced in 2016 (PR Refactor service extensions #3397) to match early Observatory conventions where all response objects had a type field.
  • The VM Service protocol and dart:developer.ServiceExtensionResponse do not require type or method.
  • Injected keys clobbered legitimate type or method entries in extension responses and required mutating the returned map.
  • Standard clients (flutter_tools, DevTools, IDE plugins) parse specific payload properties (value, enabled, diagnostics JSON) rather than _extensionType or method.

Related Issues

None

Tests

  • Verified all existing framework foundation tests (service_extensions_test.dart, etc.) and flutter_tools daemon tests pass.

Code Review

This pull request removes the automatic addition of 'type' and 'method' keys to the result map returned by service extensions in BindingBase.registerServiceExtension. It also updates the relevant documentation in binding.dart and daemon.dart to reflect this change. There are no review comments, and I have no feedback to provide.

No test coverage since there weren't tests to begin with 🤷 there's nothing really to test here.
