Add support / documentation for native assets in pub executables

[jackd]

I'm looking for a way to use native assets in a pub-configured executable.

I apologise in advance if this is already implemented / documented somewhere, but having tried to minimally change the native_add_app example I haven't had much luck.

Steps to reproduce:

1. run dart pub get in native_add_app and native_add_library
2. add the following to native_add_app/pubspec.yaml:

executables:
  native_add_app:

3. activate the package globally

dart pub global activate --source path ./native_add_app

4. Run

native_add_app

Result:

$ native_add_app
Building package executable...
Built native_add_app:native_add_app.
Invoking a native function to calculate 1 + 2.
Unhandled exception:
Invalid argument(s): Couldn't resolve native function 'add' in 'package:native_add_library/native_add_library.dart' : No asset with id 'package:native_add_library/native_add_library.dart' found. No available native assets. Attempted to fallback to process lookup. /home/jackd/programs/flutter/bin/cache/dart-sdk/bin/dart: undefined symbol: add.

Managed to get things working with

dart pub global run --enable-experiment=native-assets native_add_app:native_add_app

Not quite as convenient as native_add_app but I can't see any way to make the script pub makes at ~/.pub-cache/bin/native_add_app play nicely.

Having said that, it would be nice if the error message was a little more informative. If I dart run bin/native_add_app I get the much more helpful message:

Package(s) native_add_library require the native assets feature to be enabled. Enable native assets with `--enable-experiment=native-assets`.
