TextInputType.none makes it possible to disable the virtual keyboard for individual TextFields, and lays the foundations for custom in-app virtual keyboards (#76072).

This is just the framework part that merely introduces the TextInputType.none enum value. For the actual functionality, the engine needs to be adapted for all platforms to respect TextInputType.none when passed in the text input configuration.

Closes: #83567

LGTM. I'll hold off until the engine changes are LGTM'd.

I suppose there's not much we can do on Windows at this point. TextInput.show and TextInput.hide do nothing: https://github.com/flutter/engine/blob/2384128a226c6661844c247a31204235372a81e6/shell/platform/windows/text_input_plugin.cc#L148. There seems to be a ticket about it: #36057

On macOS, the Accessibility Keyboard is a persistent floating top-level window, and its visibility is controlled by the user. So nothing to do on macOS either?

LGTM 👍

Looks like the analyzer is down or something? It's not able to run.

Edit: Windows and Mac seem ok to me also. I would think it's desired that the user can still control an accessibility keyboard even if a Mac app has implemented a custom virtual keyboard using this feature.

If keyboardType is given TextInputType.none and autofocus is true, it doesn't let enter any text.
