Adds a Flutter run key to dump the focus tree: once the app is launched using flutter run, pressing f dumps the focus tree. This aligns with how pressing w dumps the widget hierarchy and t dumps the render tree.

This makes it easier to debug focus issues like:

  • What is focused currently?
  • Why is tabbing moving my focus unexpectedly?
  • Why isn't my shortcut's action running?

Example output:

> flutter run lib\empty.dart -d windows
Launching lib\empty.dart on Windows in debug mode...
Building Windows application...                                     5.4s
✓  Built build\windows\runner\Debug\ui.exe.
Syncing files to device Windows...                                  66ms

Flutter run key commands.
r Hot reload. 🔥🔥🔥
R Hot restart.
h List all available interactive commands.
d Detach (terminate "flutter run" but leave application running).
c Clear the screen
q Quit (terminate the application on the device).
