Fix SelectionArea handles overlapping context menu on Android#182663

Code Review
The pull request correctly addresses the layering issue on Android where selection handles could appear above the context menu. By reordering the calls in _handleTouchLongPressEnd to show handles before the toolbar, the toolbar is inserted later into the Overlay and thus paints on top. This change is consistent with other interaction handlers in SelectableRegionState. My review identifies a minor formatting issue and suggests adding a regression test to ensure the fix remains robust, referencing the repository's guidelines on formatting and testing.

Hi @JhonaCodes, thank you for the contribution! Overall the change looks good I just left a few small comments.

I had one last thought about this test. Maybe we can move this test to selectable_region_test.dart.
It would need to:
- Use
TestWidgetsAppinstead ofMaterialApp. - Use
SelectableRegioninstead ofSelectionArea. - Confirm the overlay order of selection handles and context menus inserted by selectable region by verifying against the build order rather than creating a very large context menu. You can look to this test
for an example. You can track the builder order through
contextMenuBuilderand passing a customselectionControlstoSelectableRegion.

Thanks for the suggestion, I find this approach more elegant and granular. Verifying the build order rather than simulating the interaction is something I hadn't considered. Applied.

@JhonaCodes Thank you for the changes! I had one last thought about the test but other than that it looks good to me.

@JhonaCodes It looks like you'll need to run |

can this be solve by providing above https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/widgets/OverlayState/insert.html?

Looking at the code, the anchor must be insert first, so the order still matter, but at least it will throw if someone accidentally revert this change

Thanks @chunhtai
Just to make sure I'm applying what you're suggesting: the actual overlay.insert for the toolbar is in SelectionOverlay.showToolbar() (text_selection.dart:~1639), not here in selectable_region.dart.
My read of your suggestion is to change ).insert(_toolbar!); to ).insert(_toolbar!, above: _handles?.end); so that when handles are present the assertion in _debugVerifyInsertPosition throws if the handle-before-toolbar order is ever reversed, and when _handles is null, (valid on some platforms / EditableText paths where handles aren't shown) it falls back to default top insertion.
Does that match what you had in mind, or did you want it narrower (e.g. only from the Android long-press path)?.
Thanks.

should be universally for all cases if possible

This PR fixes an Android
SelectionArealayering issue where selection handles can paint above the expanded contextmenu (overflow actions), causing visual overlap and making menu actions harder to read/tap.
The change updates the overlay/show ordering so the context menu remains visually above selection handles when both are
visible.
