Description of Change
TemplatedItemViewHolder is setting the BindingContext of its View to
null
when recycling. This causes the template to update and invalidate, which hurts performance and leads to a race condition with measurement where the layout is measured as if it had empty string content and then laid out incorrectly. (For fast Label renderers; for the legacy Label renderers, the layout eventually displays correctly, but the control flashes blank briefly first).This change eliminates the unnecessary re-binding to
null
and avoids the race condition.Issues Resolved
