ActionChip class
A Material Design action chip.
Action chips are a set of options which trigger an action related to primary content. Action chips should appear dynamically and contextually in a UI.
Action chips can be tapped to trigger an action or show progress and confirmation. For Material 3, a disabled state is supported for Action chips and is specified with onPressed being null. For previous versions of Material Design, it is recommended to remove the Action chip from the interface entirely rather than display a disabled chip.
Action chips are displayed after primary content, such as below a card or persistently at the bottom of a screen.
The material button widgets, ElevatedButton, TextButton, and OutlinedButton, are an alternative to action chips, which should appear statically and consistently in a UI.
Requires one of its ancestors to be a Material widget.

Material Design 3
ActionChip can be used for both the Assist and Suggestion chips from Material Design 3. If ThemeData.useMaterial3 is true, then ActionChip will be styled to match the Material Design 3 Assist and Suggestion chips.
Creating an Assist chip
Assist chips are used to provide a quick way to perform an action. To create an Action chip, set the icon property to the icon that represents the action and set the label to the name of the action.
Creating a Suggestion chip
Suggestion chips usually display generated suggestions for the user, like a suggested response to a message.
To create a Suggestion chip, set the label to the suggestion and don't set the icon property.
