viewmodel

• MutableCreationExtras has been renamed to MutableCreationExtrasBuilder,
  and it does not inherit from CreationExtras anymore.
  Because of this, a new method
  MutableCreationExtrasBuilder.asCreationExtras() has been introduced can be used to convert
  a builder back to CreationExtras as needed.

  NOTE: buildCreationExtras and CreationExtras.edit methods are still the same as before.

  // Old version (0.5.0)
  val creationExtras: CreationExtras = MutableCreationExtras().apply {
    // ...
  }
  
  // New version (0.6.0): `MutableCreationExtras` does not inherit from `CreationExtras` anymore.
  val creationExtras: CreationExtras = MutableCreationExtrasBuilder().apply {
    // ...
  }.asCreationExtras() // <--- asCreationExtras: convert a builder back to `CreationExtras` as needed.

  More details: with Kotlin 1.9.20, an expect with default arguments are no longer
  permitted when an actual is a typealias
  (see KT-57614),
  we cannot
  use actual typealias MutableCreationExtras = androidx.lifecycle.viewmodel.MutableCreationExtras.
  So we have to use wrapper class instead.

• Update the docs of ViewModel.viewModelScope to clarify that the scope is thread-safe
  on both Android and non-Android targets.

• On non-Android targets

  • ViewModel.clear() method has been refactored to improve the performance.
  • Any Exception thrown from Closeable.close() will be re-thrown as RuntimeException.
