Code Review
This pull request adds a definition for 'Primary constructor' to the glossary. The definition is good, but it's slightly outdated as it only mentions extension types. I've suggested an update to include primary constructors for classes, which were introduced in Dart 3.4, and to add a relevant documentation link.

The description for primary constructors is slightly outdated. Since Dart 3.4, primary constructors are also available for classes, not just extension types.
I'd suggest updating the description to include classes and adding a link to the relevant documentation for class-based primary constructors to make the glossary entry more accurate and complete.
long_description: |-
A _primary constructor_ is a concise way to declare a constructor
directly in the type declaration.
Primary constructors can be used with [classes][] and [extension types][].
For classes, they allow you to define fields and initialize them from
constructor parameters in one step. For extension types, they allow you
to define the underlying representation object and bind it to a field.
