DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Documents stream mode across the Dart/Flutter integration guides.

  • Adds a reusable stream-mode callout to every integration page (transactions become service spans; auto-instrumentation switches automatically)
  • Adds inline // or, in stream mode: Sentry.startSpan(...) hints next to the transaction/span creation in the integration code snippets (http, dio, file, graphql, sqflite, drift, hive, isar, asset bundle, user interaction), mirroring the Python integrations approach

Stacked on #18554 — review/merge that first.

Pull request overview

Adds a shared “stream mode” callout to Dart/Flutter tracing integration docs so readers understand how transaction references map in stream mode and where to learn more (New Spans).

Changes:

  • Added a reusable MDX include (includes/dart-stream-mode-general-callout.mdx) containing an <Alert> with stream mode guidance.
  • Inserted that include at the top of 14 Dart/Flutter integration include pages (plus the integrations index) that cover tracing-related behavior.

Add a reusable stream mode callout and include it on the Dart and Flutter
integration pages that document tracing. The callout clarifies that
transaction references map to service spans in stream mode, that
auto-instrumentation switches automatically, and that manual instrumentation
uses Sentry.startSpan. Because the integration pages share these includes,
one change covers both Dart and Flutter.

Mirror the Python integrations approach: keep the transaction-mode
snippet and add an inline 'or, in stream mode: Sentry.startSpan(...)'
comment next to each transaction/span creation.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the one-line inline stream-mode hints with full dual-mode
snippets on the auto-instrumentation includes. Each Verify example now
shows a Transaction Mode (Default) tab alongside a Stream Mode tab that
wraps the work in `Sentry.startSpan`, so auto-created spans attach to the
active span. Behaviour notes now describe both modes.

Asset bundle instrumentation still uses the legacy span API and produces
no spans in stream mode, so its page keeps a transaction-only snippet
with an explicit limitation note instead of a stream tab.

Address Copilot review nit: method names in prose should include
parentheses for consistency with other SDK docs.
