 * (such as downloading a large file).
 *
 * A FlutterEngine can also be used to prewarm the Dart execution environment and reduce the
 * latency of showing the Flutter screen when a `FlutterViewController` is created and presented.
 * See http://flutter.dev/docs/development/add-to-app/performance for more details on loading
 * performance.
 *
 * Alternatively, you can simply create a new `FlutterViewController` with only a
 * `FlutterDartProject`. That `FlutterViewController` will internally manage its
 * own instance of a FlutterEngine, but will not guarantee survival of the engine
 * beyond the life of the ViewController.
 *
 * A newly initialized FlutterEngine will not actually run a Dart Isolate until
 * either `-runWithEntrypoint:` or `-runWithEntrypoint:libraryURI` is invoked.
 * One of these methods must be invoked before calling `-setViewController:`.
