Nobody can answer this question except Google, however it seems very unlikely that anyone would put effort into Windows Phone when even Microsoft are not:

Of course we'll continue to support the platform.. bug fixes, security updates, etc. But building new features/hw aren't the focus. 😟

As for:

support any other platforms other than iOS and Android for Cross platform development using Flutter

This is not officially supported, but lots of people in the community are interested in running Flutter on desktop and have been playing around with it. Maybe in future it'll cover more platforms even if they're not official or from Google.
