Exclude arm64 if any dependencies do and print warning when using Xcode 26#182913

Code Review
This pull request introduces significant improvements for handling builds on Xcode 26, particularly with arm-only simulators. When a dependency excludes the arm64 architecture, Flutter will now also exclude it to ensure the build can proceed on an x86 architecture. For developers on Xcode 26+, a new, detailed warning will identify which plugins (including transitive dependencies) lack arm64 support. Additionally, new diagnostics will guide users if a build fails on an arm-only simulator. My review includes a couple of suggestions to improve maintainability and follow asynchronous programming best practices.

The overall logic makes sense. Just a few questions since I am not familiar with the details.
@okorohelijah should also review since you are more familiar

it's a dependency graph (not tree) right?

Good point, I'll rename
…de 26 (flutter#182913) If any Pod dependencies exclude the arm64 architecture for simulators, Flutter excludes it too. This will force Xcode to build it in an x86 architecture. However, iOS 26 introduced arm-only simulators. So when using Xcode 26, print a warning with the list of plugins/targets that are excluding arm and direct them to request arm support. Then if the build fails due to targeting an arm-only simulator, give a guided message to switch to an x86 simulator.

nit: this parameter is still named as a tree.
If it's a graph as you said, does it mean that it's possible to have 2 plugins with the same dependency? for example:
PODS:
- plugin_1 (1.0.0)
- SDK_THAT_EXCLUDES_ARM64
- plugin_2 (1.0.0)
- SDK_THAT_EXCLUDES_ARM64
In this case, we may wanna report both plugin_1 and plugin_2, rather than just plugin_1.
(it's probably not a common use case, so feel free to ignore)
