Support for creating sample content in the New Project Wizard (AS)

[pq]

Sub-task from #2968 and the corollary in Android Studio to IDEA support in #2974.

The Android Studio project creation flow provides a few places to add hooks.

Candidate places:

1. project configuration (first page)

2. project configuration (second page)

@stevemessick: thoughts?

Do you want to allow for samples using the package template? That form of the wizard currently has only one page.

Also, for apps and plugins, the option to generate kotlin/swift is on the second page. You'd need to make the sample dependent on the language, I'd think.

I think we want to limit this to applications. (At least to start?)

[stevemessick]

That would cover the greatest number of users, I suppose. But I'd prefer to see samples for all project types, especially plugins. The thing is, I don't know what the future of Module and Application are, in light of add2app. One of them may be going away.

If we did support sample templates in package projects, would the content need to be any different? (I guess I imagined it might but maybe that was over-thinking.)

[stevemessick]

I just assumed all project types would have different samples. I have not thought about it in detail.

I imagined that too.

/cc @gspencergoog who surely knows more...

There are currently only samples for applications. The Module type has been merged into the app type anyhow, for add2app. An app is now basically a module that has has its hidden directories instantiated.

We could make samples for plugins, but there's a bit of work we'd have to do to make new templates for them.

Another user #3131 suggested a more useful sample, instead of our default calculator class, would be a subclass widget or some other fluttery thing - seem more useful than Calculator.

Fixed with #3134
