[resources] Add functions to retrieve bytes from drawable or font res…

…ources. (#4651)

Implemented two new experimental functions:
```kotlin
/**
 * Retrieves the byte array of the drawable resource.
 *
 * @param environment The resource environment, which can be obtained from [rememberResourceEnvironment] or [getSystemResourceEnvironment].
 * @param resource The drawable resource.
 * @return The byte array representing the drawable resource.
 */
@ExperimentalResourceApi
suspend fun getDrawableResourceBytes(
    environment: ResourceEnvironment,
    resource: DrawableResource
): ByteArray {...}

/**
 * Retrieves the byte array of the font resource.
 *
 * @param environment The resource environment, which can be obtained from [rememberResourceEnvironment] or [getSystemResourceEnvironment].
 * @param resource The font resource.
 * @return The byte array representing the font resource.
 */
@ExperimentalResourceApi
suspend fun getFontResourceBytes(
    environment: ResourceEnvironment,
    resource: FontResource
): ByteArray {...}
```

1.6.10-beta01

Changes since 1.6.2

Highlights

• Experimental multiplatform support of Lifecycle and ViewModel. See documentation for details
• Experimental multiplatform support of Jetpack Navigation. See documentation for details or check out the nav_cupcake project which was converted from the Navigate between screens with Compose Android codelab

Known issues

• ⚠️ Crash at startup on pre-iOS 17 devices due to loading UITextLoupeSession
• lifecycle-runtime breaks Compose UI compatibility with Java 11 on desktop, it requires Java 17 or above now.
• inline fun <reified VM> viewModel(...) is not available from common due to compiler bug. Please use fun <VM> viewModel(KClass, ...) overload instead
• Compose Multiplatform doesn't provide default ViewModelStoreOwner yet. For using ViewModels outside of NavHost you need to provide custom store owner via LocalViewModelStoreOwner

v1.6.10-dev1583

[resources] Support SVG drawables for non android platforms (#4605)

1.6.10-dev1580

Option to pack jars as uber JAR, support Proguard for uber JAR (#4136)

## Proposed changes
1. Added support to join JARs to the uber JAR with ProGuard, disabled by
default:
```
compose.desktop {
    application {
        buildTypes.release.proguard {
            joinOutputJars.set(true)
        }
    }
}
```
2. All 'release' tasks now really depend on ProGuard, as stated in
[tutorial](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/tree/master/tutorials/Native_distributions_and_local_execution#minification--obfuscation).

## Testing
- A new auto test

- Manual:
1. Test on Windows/macOs/Linux
2. Test the new Gradle parameter `joinOutputJars`:
```
compose.desktop {
    application {
        buildTypes.release.proguard {
            joinOutputJars.set(true)
        }
    }
}
```
`false` (by default) should generate multiple jars (except for
`package*UberJarForCurrentOS`)
`true` should generate a single jar in a result distribution
3. Test debug tasks:
```
run
runDistributable
createDistributable
packageUberJarForCurrentOS
```
4. Test release tasks:
```
runRelease
runReleaseDistributable
createReleaseDistributable
packageReleaseUberJarForCurrentOS
```
The jars should be reduced in size (because Proguard is enabled in the
release mode)

This should be test by QA.
