Improving Flutter support in Android Studio

[stevemessick]

Flutter projects are not Gradle-based Android projects so a number of features provided by Android Studio are not available to Flutter programmers.

• When opening / editing plugin files in the android/ or ios/ directories, have an easy way for the user to open the correct external editor.
• Code completion in the Java or Kotlin code of an Android module should be supported.
• The Project list view should default to Project not Android.
  [I think this was fixed by Android Studio at the beginning of May]
• The Project list view setting should be preserved.
  [I think this was fixed by Android Studio at the beginning of May]
• The AVD Manager should always be available.
• The framework detector should not report that an Android framework has been detected.
• Support indexing of C++ files to allow navigation, completion, etc.
• Support off-line project creation Support offline project creation in Android Studio. #2099

Also the Device File Explorer is missing in flutter project on Android studio. Everytime i have to open android module for that which is hectic because of gradle syncing time

@domesticmouse Can we get some focus on this one? Was opened in May 2018 !!! 😱

I opened it as a tracking issue. Everything is done except C++ indexing, which we won't do due to vendor limitations.
