[gen-l10n] Localization files are auto-generated when running the project #120023

Description

@kwado-tech

Steps to Reproduce

  • Create a new flutter project
  • Setup localization using flutter_localizations package from sdk
flutter_localizations:
    sdk: flutter
  • Setup l10n.yaml configuration
  • Generate app-localization by running flutter gen-l10n in terminal or running the project
  • Try disabling auto generation by setting generate: false and not specifying it in pubspec.yaml

Expected results: Localization files should not be auto-generated on running a flutter project

Actual results: Localization files are auto-generated even after setting generate: false in pubspec.yaml.
