Action does not work with fvm #8
Description
We are using fvm in our Flutter project. This means essentially that you have to prefix every flutter shell command with fvm to work.
This action is not compatible with fvm as we just recently discovered. The issue is that the action doesn't find the Flutter installation on the host system, then installs the most recent Flutter version, and continues.
This wasn't an issue before because it worked. But now, we are currently on 3.27.5, but the action installs 3.29.0 (flutter --version fails)
The final error is related to the flutterfire_cli which cannot be activated because it doesn't support Dart 3.6.0.
Btw: We also have flutterfire_cli installed in our pipeline but it gets overriden by this earlier version.

Full log is attached.
The fix is quite easy: Don't use fvm in the pipeline. I tried with 3.27.5 and 3.29.0 and both versions work. However, I don't fully understand why the pipeline fails in the flutterfire step.
