Widgets: Remove option to create StackWidgets
StackWidgets have been unfortunately been very unreliable on multiple phones, and fixing it does not appear to be simple. This commit removes the ability to create new StackWidgets, but existing ones should remain functional.

Hey @iSoron
Will stacked widgets ever be making a comeback? Or will it be removed forever?
Thanks

Same question here. It allows to have a better usage of space on the home screen.

@fillwithjoy1 @Spiralo-Idioide I spent significant amount of time trying to make stack widgets stable across multiple phones, but I haven't been successful, so I won't be working on this feature anymore. If someone is willing to fix these issues and submit a pull request, I will consider re-adding the feature.

Hi @iSoron, perhaps the better approach here would be to re-enable the feature and mention that the widget may not work as expected (perhaps it can be marked as beta?). For example, the problem that I encountered was: in my device I switched to a new launcher, but I'm unable to create a new stacked widget even though the stacked widget works perfectly fine on my device. Re-enabling the stacked widget will allow most users (assuming most users have devices which supports the functionality of the widget) to use the widget.
