The "--no-shrink" FLAG with flutter build apk does't work as the document said.

[yanshouwang]

Use case

The official document said that the R8 can be disabled with the --no-shrink flag when run flutter build apk.

But after I tried this, I found it doesn't work, the only way to disable R8 is modify the build.gradle.

Until I run the flutter build apk --help --verbose I just konw that this flag doesn't work any more, and this flag was hide without the --verbose flag, this flag confused me for a long time.

I think it's a nessery to clarify this in the docs.

Proposal

Please update the part of R8 in the official docs.
Or show this flg without --verbose when run flutter build apk --help(I event don't konw the --verbose flag can work with the --help command before...)
