PreferredSizeWidget class

An interface for widgets that can return the size this widget would prefer if it were otherwise unconstrained.

There are a few cases, notably AppBar and TabBar, where it would be undesirable for the widget to constrain its own size but where the widget needs to expose a preferred or "default" size. For example a primary Scaffold sets its app bar height to the app bar's preferred height plus the height of the system status bar.

Use PreferredSize to give a preferred size to an arbitrary widget.
