Component API

The base CKComponent class is quite simple. Leaving out a few methods, it looks like this:

@interface CKComponent : NSObject
/** Returns a new component. */
+ (instancetype)newWithView:(const CKComponentViewConfiguration &)view
                       size:(const CKComponentSize &)size;
@end

Notes:

• A component is totally immutable. For example, there is no addSubcomponent: method.
• A component can be created on any thread. This helps keep all sizing and construction operations off the main thread.
• The Objective-C idiom +newWith... is used for instantiation instead of the more typical +alloc/-initWith... This is mainly for brevity. Getting rid of noise is important to keep components code readable.
