RendererBinding mixin

The glue between the render trees and the Flutter engine.

The RendererBinding manages multiple independent render trees. Each render tree is rooted in a RenderView that must be added to the binding via addRenderView to be considered during frame production, hit testing, etc. Furthermore, the render tree must be managed by a PipelineOwner that is part of the pipeline owner tree rooted at rootPipelineOwner.

Adding PipelineOwners and RenderViews to this binding in the way described above is left as a responsibility for a higher level abstraction. The widgets library, for example, introduces the View widget, which registers its RenderView and PipelineOwner with this binding.
