Componentless builders

We’re planning on adding a feature to Dagger that allows users to create builders that, rather than building an @Component type, build a normal object that a component could return from an entry point. A design document for that is available here.

This issue is mostly for tracking the feature and a request for feedback on the proposed API.

Instance.Builder?

Can something other than Component be used? It’s such an overloaded term already, and this flip-around feels pretty obtuse

Instead of

@Component.Builderinterface FooBuilder { @BindsInstance FooBuilder bar(Bar bar); FooBuilder bazModule(BazModule baz);

@Component(modules = …) Foo build(); }

Maybe

@Component.Builderinterface FooBuilder { @BindsInstance FooBuilder bar(Bar bar); FooBuilder bazModule(BazModule baz);

@Elide(modules = …) Foo build(); }

Or @Direct, or @Component.Direct or something to better differentiate this API/behavior
