Trevor Johns 682c24e228 Resolve merge conflicts of a5060ee to nyc-dev
This undoes the automerger skip which occured in
commit e740c84dc32180214a7fd157105d6c18d30408ee and
replays it as a standard (NOT -s ours) merge.

There are many situations where you might want your app to show a quick
message to the user, without necessarily waiting for the user to respond.
For example, when a user performs an action like sending an email or deleting
a file, your app should show a quick confirmation to the user. Often the user
doesn't need to respond to the message. The message needs to be prominent
enough that the user can see it, but not so prominent that it prevents the
user from working with your app.
</p>
<p>
Android provides the {@link android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} widget
for this common use case.
A {@link android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} provides a quick pop-up
message to the user. The current activity remains visible and interactive
while the {@link android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} is displayed. After a
short time, the Snackbar automatically dismisses itself.
</p>
<p>
This class teaches you how to use {@link
android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} to show pop-up messages.

<strong>Figure 1.</strong> A {@link android.support.design.widget.Snackbar}
shows a message at the bottom of the
activity, but the rest of the activity is still usable.

<p class="note">
<strong>Note:</strong> The {@link
android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} class supersedes {@link
android.widget.Toast}. While {@link android.widget.Toast} is currently still
supported, {@link android.support.design.widget.Snackbar} is now the
preferred way to display brief, transient messages to the user.
