Code Review

This pull request updates the CHANGELOG.md file to document the release of Flutter version 3.44.7. Feedback suggests rephrasing the entry for flutter/189272 to describe the fix rather than just the bug symptom, which improves clarity and consistency.

For clarity and consistency in changelogs, it is highly recommended to describe the action taken (e.g., the fix) rather than just describing the bug symptom. Describing only the symptom can make it unclear whether the issue was resolved or if it is a known issue. Consider rephrasing this to clearly state that the resource leak/crash has been fixed.

- [flutter/189272](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/pull/189272) Fixes a resource leak and potential crash when running apps that use external textures on certain GPUs (such as Arm Mali).

You generally don't need to add changelog entries for things that are internal/CI only changes, so you can probably omit these.
