Please start passing in a language version to dart_style

[munificent]

Greetings web team friends!

The formatter is moving to being language version aware. This means that when it's parsing some code, it needs to be told what language version to parse it as. The DartFormatter constructor now takes an optional parameter where you can pass in the language version. In a future version of dart_style, that parameter will become mandatory.

If you own code that uses dart_style as a library, you should update your code to pass in a language version. To migrate:

1. Update your constraint on dart_style to ^2.3.7. That's the version where the new parameter was added.

2. If you know the precise language version the code should be parsed as, then pass in that version (as an instance of the pub_semver package's Version class). This is what "real" tools should do.

   For simple one-off scripts and other utilities where precise behavior doesn't matter much, you can pass in DartFormatter.latestLanguageVersion to unconditionally parse the code as the latest language version that the formatter itself supports.

When the --tall-style experiment flag ships, the passed in language version will also be used to determine whether you get the current formatting style or the new "tall" style.

The constructor call that I think is relevant is:

web/tool/generator/dart_main.dart:
   47:   return DartFormatter(experimentFlags: [inlineClassExperimentFlag])

Thank you!

Thought I closed this, but this has landed. Thanks for the clear steps!
