- [ ] Simplify APIs used during run/debug (see https://github.com/flutter/flutter-intellij/pull/8985)

Research direction

Start by reviewing the run/debug API changes discussed in pull request #8985 and confirm which older platform versions constrain the current design. When 2026.1 is the lower bound, simplify those APIs and verify that run/debug behavior remains covered by the existing project checks.
