Enabled displaying a scrollbar in ScrollingLists. The scrollbar is painted as an "overlay", i.e. it's painted on top of the scrolling list's visible children.
Added an abstract Painter base class that encapsulates a paint method and the renderer that it's attached to. RenderBlockViewport and HomogenousViewport now support an overlayPainter property. If specified, RenderBlockViewport attaches itself to the overlayPainter when it's attached to the rendering tree. RenderBlockViewport now calls overlayPainter.paint() after it has painted its children.
Added an abstract ScrollingListPainter class that exposes ScrollingList's state which might be needed for painting. Like its scroll direction and scrollOffset. The ScrollingListPainter is notified when a scroll starts and ends.
Defined a Material-specific ScrollingListPainter that renders a scrollbar. The scrollbar thumb is faded in/out when the scroll starts/ends.
Added onScrollStart and onScrollEnd listeners to Scrollable.
Also, fix warnings in rendering/sector_layout.dart
Also, fix hit testing in rendering/sector_layout.dart
Also, add WidgetToRenderBoxAdapter
Also, make the rendering library debugging tools more resilient to
dumping stuff before layout is complete.
Add type annotations in many places.
Fix some identifiers to have more lint-satisfying names.
Make all operator==s consistent in style.
Reorder some functions for consistency.
Make ParentData no longer dynamic, and fix all the code around that.
Now that you import a top-level file for each layer of the Flutter
framework, within the framework we can use relative paths without being
worried about the copy/pasta problem we used to have.
The root cause was that we crawled the tree to mark anyone who depended
on the updated theme dirty _after_ we crawled it to rebuild it. Thus, if
anyone was already marked dirty when the process started, then got
marked clean by the first (rebuild) walk, then got marked dirty again by
the notification, they'd be clean when they got the notification,
despite already being in the dirty list, which would cause an assertion.
Also IconTheme didn't have an operator==, so it was independently too
aggressive about updates.
Added horizontal and vertical alignment properties to Stack so that the origin of non-positioned children can be specified. Currently all of the non-positioned children just end up with their top-left at 0,0. Now, for example, you can center the children by specifying verticalAlignment: 0.5, horizontalAlignment: 0.5.
Added IndexedStack which only paints the stack child specified by the index property. Since it's a Stack, it's as big as the biggest non-positioned child. This component will be essential for building mobile drop down menus.
Added a (likely temporary) example that demonstrates IndexedStack.
