Remarks

Manages the creation, tracking, and retrieval of chooser sessions.

An Interactive Chooser Session allows apps to invoke the system Chooser without entirely covering app UI. Users may interact with both the app and Chooser, while bidirectional communication between the two ensures a consistent state.

<h3>Usage Example:</h3>

{@code
            ChooserManager chooserManager = context.getSystemService(ChooserManager.class);
            if (chooserManager == null) {
                // handle the case when the interactive chooser session functionality is not supported.
            }

            // Construct the sharing intent
            Intent targetIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
            targetIntent.setType("text/plain");
            targetIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is a message that will be shared.");

            Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(targetIntent, null);

            // Start a new chooser session
            ChooserSession session = chooserManager.startSession(context, chooserIntent);
            ChooserSessionToken token = session.getToken();
            // Optionally, store the token int an activity saved state to re-associate with the session later

            // Later, to retrieve a session using a token:
            ChooserSessionToken retrievedToken = ... // obtain the stored token
            ChooserSession existingSession = chooserManager.getSession(retrievedToken);
            if (existingSession != null) {
            // Interact with the existing session
            }
            }
