Extract the downloaded Dart SDK zip/tar into a temporary staging directory first, and only move/rename it to bin/cache/dart-sdk once extraction succeeds.

This prevents the cache directory from being left in a partially populated or corrupted state if download or extraction is interrupted.

Fixes #15552

Pre-launch Checklist

…tion

Extracting the Dart SDK archive directly to `bin/cache/dart-sdk` can
leave the SDK in a corrupt/partial state if the process is interrupted
(e.g., via Ctrl-C).

By extracting to a temporary directory `bin/cache/dart-sdk.tmp` first
and then moving it to the final destination, we make the installation
more atomic and prevent this corrupt state.

Fixes flutter#15552

Code Review

This pull request updates the Dart SDK update scripts for PowerShell and Bash to extract the SDK into a temporary directory before moving it to its final location. Feedback on both scripts notes that if the extraction or move operations fail, the scripts will still write the engine stamp and falsely report a successful update. It is recommended to handle these failures and abort execution to prevent a corrupted or incomplete SDK installation.

- Abort and clean up temporary directory if extraction directory is missing.
- Handle move failures in Bash and PowerShell scripts to prevent writing engine stamp on error.
Comment thread bin/internal/update_dart_sdk.ps1 Outdated
Keep the existing SDK in place during download and extraction so that
it remains available to running processes and is not displaced if
downloading or extracting fails.

At some point I might argue "Why not.... build this as an executable" and avoid scripting :)

I'd love that. So many weird issues due to weird scripting syntax and behavior :( We'd just need a way to figure out how to ship the tool as a binary...
