For all packages that had conditionals to support Android API <24:

  • Update the min Flutter version to 3.35, which requires API 24
  • Remove the conditional logic
  • Update gradle to require 24.

Also scrubs some comments about older verisons from the app-facing package READMEs, where details hadn't yet been moved to implementation packages. Those don't have version changes, since it's not important when this information goes out (as people on older versions of Flutter, and supporting older versions of Android in their apps, will still get compatible versions, they just aren't the versions we are supporting now).

Code Review

This pull request effectively removes support for Android API levels below 24 across multiple packages, which aligns with the new minimum Flutter version requirement. The changes are comprehensive, covering build configurations, conditional logic in the source code, and documentation updates. The removal of legacy code simplifies the codebase and improves maintainability. I've found one minor formatting issue that could be addressed.
