[google_maps_flutter] Improved perfomance of clusterization
Google Maps implementation for flutter web is invoking rendering after each added marker to cluster. It is extremely non optimal, as result app is freezing for some time in case of significant number of markers (200+, but it is more obvious for 1k+) especially if they are using images instead of default icon.
As fix I am proposing to utilize method addItems of JS implementation instead of addMarker and render only as batch of markers are added.
I have tested new implementation with 3k markers and before it was freezed for 15-30 seconds, now it works without any freeze at all.
Fixes #179456

Note: The Flutter team is currently trialing the use of Gemini Code Assist for GitHub. Comments from the gemini-code-assist bot should not be taken as authoritative feedback from the Flutter team. If you find its comments useful you can update your code accordingly, but if you are unsure or disagree with the feedback, please feel free to wait for a Flutter team member's review for guidance on which automated comments should be addressed.
[^1]: Regular contributors who have demonstrated familiarity with the repository guidelines only need to comment if the PR is not auto-exempted by repo tooling.
It looks like this pull request may not have tests. Please make sure to add tests or get an explicit test exemption before merging.
If you are not sure if you need tests, consider this rule of thumb: the purpose of a test is to make sure someone doesn't accidentally revert the fix. Ask yourself, is there anything in your PR that you feel it is important we not accidentally revert back to how it was before your fix?
Reviewers: Read the Tree Hygiene page and make sure this patch meets those guidelines before LGTMing. If you believe this PR qualifies for a test exemption, contact "@test-exemption-reviewer" in the #hackers channel in Discord (don't just cc them here, they won't see it!). The test exemption team is a small volunteer group, so all reviewers should feel empowered to ask for tests, without delegating that responsibility entirely to the test exemption group.
@mdebbar Could you review please? It is quite safe PR, it has minimal changes to specific feature
