automatically run flutter generate

See original GitHub issue

I would like to have something similiar to promptToRunPubGet that asks user to run flutter generate, maybe it could be even done in the same operation?

User agrees to download packages.
After packages have been downloaded, DartCode checks if builders: option exists in pubspec.
If that option exists, it runs flutter generate and updates the prompt message.
After that we assume that, assuming #1970 was fixed, the error will disappear.

The goal is: a newbie clones the project, follows prompts, and has project that compiles and shows no errors.

Example project is available here: https://github.com/Dart-Code/Dart-Code/issues/1970#issuecomment-528333884

Great, that sounds like it would allow us to prompt in the fresh-repo case at least. Thanks!

Closing this because flutter generate will be removed 😦
