Support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay #2635

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

Android Auto was brought up as a question a while ago on the slack channel. I think it would be great if we could support building applications for these systems and thus allow Fyne applications to run in automotive environments.

Is it possible to construct a solution with the existing API?

I am not entirely sure what the state of this is or how much would be needed to make it work. If it doesn't already work, I suspect that it theoretically could require some changes for cmd/fyne to be able to build for this specific use case.

Describe the solution you'd like to see:

Support for building for and running on automotive systems like Android Auto and iOS.

Does anyone know how you get started with this? Is there some emulator or test platform that you work with?

CarPlay simulator is part of the iOS simulator.

Oh ouch, it's more like Apple Watch than a new platform - your iOS app has to drive it.

Is the Android approach similar?
