Reland 2 (part 2): Enforce the rule of calling FlutterView.Render (#47095)

This PR relands part of #45300, which was reverted in #46919 due to performance regression.

Due to how little and trivial production code the original PR touches, I really couldn't figure out the exact line that caused it except through experimentation, which requires changes to be officially landed on the main branch. After this PR lands, I'll immediately fire a performance test.

This PR contains the render rule check performed by `PlatformDispatcher` of the original PR, the remaining changes to production code besides [the part 1](#47062). Since part 1 shows no regression, the changes of this PR is highly likely to be the culprit. Therefore I made some changes: The rule enforcement is no longer performed in release mode, but only in debug mode. This will cause behavior deviation between builds, but since the developer should be able to notice violation in debug mode anyway, I think this design is acceptable.

It is intentional to not contain any unit tests or other changes of the original PR. They will be landed shortly after this PR.

Part of flutter/flutter#136826.
