ExpansionTileController class

Enables control over a single ExpansionTile's expanded/collapsed state.

It can be useful to expand or collapse an ExpansionTile programatically, for example to reconfigure an existing expansion tile based on a system event. To do so, create an ExpansionTile with an ExpansionTileController that's owned by a stateful widget or look up the tile's automatically created ExpansionTileController with ExpansionTileController.of

The controller's expand and collapse methods cause the the ExpansionTile to rebuild, so they may not be called from a build method.
