Merged
Conversation
The launch drawable hardcoded white, which overrode the dark theme already set for night mode and, on Android 12+, became the system splash background too.

The launch drawable hardcoded white, so the splash stayed bright even on a
dark phone — and since Android 12 takes the system splash background from
windowBackgroundwhen nothing else is set, that white reached the newersplash path too. It now comes from a day/night colour resource, using the
Material You neutrals on Android 12+ and the default theme's surface below.
NormalThemepoints at the same colour, so there is no longer a jump betweenthe splash and Flutter's first frame.
Verified on an API 37 emulator: dark and light cold starts both follow the
system, with no white frame anywhere in the handover.
Closes #507
