Fixes InputDecoration helper/error end padding is not compliant with M3 spec

Tests

  • Adds 2 tests. One to verify the new padding. Another to verify the change in intrinsic height calculation. This second test does not fail without the PR but it would have failed if the PR changes only the padding and did not update the intrinsic height logic.
  • Updates 1 test related to the gap between error/helper and counter.

Code Review

This pull request addresses an issue with InputDecoration where the helper/error text padding was not compliant with Material 3 specifications. The changes in _RenderDecoration correctly adjust the constraints for the subtext to account for start and end padding, as well as the input gap. The intrinsic height calculation is also updated to be consistent with these padding changes. Additionally, new tests are added to verify the correct padding and to ensure the intrinsic height calculation doesn't cause unintended layout changes. An existing test is also updated to assert the correct gap as per the M3 spec. The changes look good and effectively fix the reported issue.

@QuncCccccc @victorsanni Thank you to review this PR. I assigned you as reviewers because you reviewed #175706.
This PR will break many Google tests, let me know if some failures are not expected.

I approved, this should trigger the google testing run.

Looking at the test failures, I see that sometimes the error text gets ellipsized after a space. So for example it changes from "Hello wor..." to "Hello ...". The unusual space after the before the ellipses makes it look buggy. Is this expected?

Looked through the google testing image diffs, they all look expected from these changes.

LGTM! Thanks for the improvement! I added a screenshot to show the M3 specs in the PR description. Just wanted to attach a reference as sometimes the specs changes:) Also checked all the Scuba diffs and they all look expected.
