Cherry pick of #191052 (addresses #191045)

  • Impacted Users (Approximately who will hit this issue, ex. all Flutter devs, Windows developers, all end-customers, apps using X framework feature).

All end customers

  • Impact Description (What is the impact? ex. visual jank on Samsung phones, app crash, cannot ship an iOS app. Does it impact development? ex. flutter doctor crashes when Android Studio is installed. Or shipping a production app? ex. the app crashes on launch).

Action handlers are mistakenly never enabled

  • Workaround (Is there a workaround for this issue?)

End users would need to reimplement Actions.handler and Action._isEnabled, or switch to master/main channel, or revert to 3.44

  • Risk (What is the risk level of this cherry-pick?)

Low?

  • Test Coverage (Are you confident that your fix is well-tested by automated tests?)

Unit tests cover regression

  • Validation Steps (What are the steps to validate that this fix works?)

Compare use of Actions.handler on Flutter 3.47 (broken) vs 3.44

This pull request was opened against a branch other than master. Since Flutter pull requests should not normally be opened against branches other than master, I have changed the base to master. If this was intended, you may modify the base back to stable. See the Release Process for information about how other branches get updated.

Reviewers: Use caution before merging pull requests to branches other than master, unless this is an intentional hotfix/cherrypick.

Code Review

This pull request updates Actions.handler in packages/flutter/lib/src/widgets/actions.dart to forward the generic intent type T and the intent argument when calling Actions.maybeFind. It also adds corresponding unit tests in packages/flutter/test/widgets/actions_test.dart to verify that the handler correctly forwards the intent type, returns null when the action is disabled, and returns null when no matching action is found. There are no review comments, so I have no feedback to provide.

Is the tree-status check stuck here? It's been like this for a day, and I see other stuff landing. I will try updating the branch.

…191052)

`Actions.handler` was calling `Actions.maybeFind(context)` without an
explicit type argument or the intent, so downward inference resolved `T`
to `Intent` and the action lookup used the literal `Intent` type instead
of the intent's concrete runtime type. Since apps register actions keyed
by their concrete `Intent` subtype, the lookup always missed and
`handler` returned `null` for every intent. This regressed in flutter#180883
and first shipped in 3.47.0.

The fix forwards the type and intent explicitly:
`Actions.maybeFind<T>(context, intent: intent)`.

## Tests

Adds regression tests for `Actions.handler`: it now finds and invokes
the bound action for the intent's runtime type, and still returns null
when the action is disabled or when no matching action is found. The
first test fails without the fix.

Fixes flutter#191045.

Ah actually, I see this was not created via the typical cherry pick process.

I am trying to follow the https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/master/docs/releases/Flutter-Cherrypick-Process.md guide but I am unable to apply the cp: review label.

I will add it to the original PR and close this one. The bot should open a new cherry pick PR from there.
