Kotlin files show "Red Symbols" (Unresolved reference) despite project building and running successfully

[yzqdev]

Summary:

Kotlin code in the android directory shows errors (red underlines) for valid symbols/variables. Interestingly, these errors disappear immediately after I manually make a small edit to the file.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open a Flutter project's android folder,

2. Gradle sync successfully.

3. Wait for a few days then open android folder again

4. Observe Kotlin symbols (e.g., FlutterActivity, MethodChannel) turning red.

5. Make a small change (like adding a space), and the red lines vanish.
