[path_provider] Adopt readme excerpts

Open stuartmorgan-g opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Converts the README from manually-maintained code snippets to using excerpts from a code file.

Also updates the snippet slightly:

  • Adds an example of a nullable method, to show that not all are non-nullable.
  • Removes the demonstrating of getting the string from the Directory, since that's not related to this package.

Includes sanity check tests of the snippet code to make sure it runs successfully.
