Controller for the accessibility button within the system's navigation area
 This class may be used to query the accessibility button's state and register
 callbacks for interactions with and state changes to the accessibility button when
 AccessibilityServiceInfo.FLAG_REQUEST_ACCESSIBILITY_BUTTON is set.
 
 Note: This class and
 AccessibilityServiceInfo.FLAG_REQUEST_ACCESSIBILITY_BUTTON should not be used as
 the sole means for offering functionality to users via an AccessibilityService.
 Some device implementations may choose not to provide a software-rendered system
 navigation area, making this affordance permanently unavailable.
 
 Note: On device implementations where the accessibility button is
 supported, it may not be available at all times, such as when a foreground application uses
 View.SYSTEM_UI_FLAG_HIDE_NAVIGATION. A user may also choose to assign
 this button to another accessibility service or feature. In each of these cases, a
 registered AccessibilityButtonCallback's
 AccessibilityButtonCallback.onAvailabilityChanged(AccessibilityButtonController, boolean)
 method will be invoked to provide notifications of changes in the accessibility button's
 availability to the registering service.
