Update package:objective_c to be compatible with ffigen

[brianquinlan]

• regenerates the bindings to return structs by value
• updates the SDK version constraint
• unbreaks the package:objective_c tests by making some constants in objc_built_in_functions.dart public again
• removes import 'package:ffi/ffi.dart' as pkg_ffi; from the preamble

Thanks for cleaning up my mess 😄

@liamappelbe ;-)

1. I like fixing stuff like this because it keeps my hands on how ffigen works
2. I assume that you intentionally moving fast to fix blockers for all the Dart native objectives - an a quarter or so, it might be worth spending some time doing clean-up
