AutomaticKeepAliveClientMixin<T extends StatefulWidget> mixin

A mixin with convenience methods for clients of AutomaticKeepAlive. Used with State subclasses.

Subclasses must implement wantKeepAlive, and their build methods must call super.build (though the return value should be ignored).

Then, whenever wantKeepAlive's value changes (or might change), the subclass should call updateKeepAlive.

The type argument T is the type of the StatefulWidget subclass of the State into which this class is being mixed.
