/// Associates a [ScrollController] with a subtree.
///
/// When a [ScrollView] has [ScrollView.primary] set to true and is not given
/// an explicit [ScrollController], the [ScrollView] uses [of] to find the
/// [ScrollController] associated with its subtree.
///
/// This mechanism can be used to provide default behavior for scroll views in a
/// subtree. For example, the [Scaffold] uses this mechanism to implement the
/// scroll-to-top gesture on iOS.
///
/// Another default behavior handled by the PrimaryScrollController is default
/// [ScrollAction]s. If a ScrollAction is not handled by an otherwise focused
/// part of the application, the ScrollAction will be evaluated using the scroll
/// view associated with a PrimaryScrollController, for example, when executing
/// [Shortcuts] key events like page up and down.
///
/// See also:
///   * [ScrollAction], an [Action] that scrolls the [Scrollable] that encloses
///     the current [primaryFocus] or is attached to the PrimaryScrollController.
///   * [Shortcuts], a widget that establishes a [ShortcutManager] to be used
///     by its descendants when invoking an [Action] via a keyboard key
///     combination that maps to an [Intent].
