ANRequest unregister `requestListener` #597

Closed larabear closed 1 year ago

Hi @amitshekhariitbhu! Thank you for building this great library.

I am running into memory leak issue with ANRequest#getAsJSONObject when the listener I supplied contains references to destroyed lifecycle objects. I am hoping to convert our callsite to suspend functions using [suspendCancellableCoroutine](https://kotlinlang.org/api/kotlinx.coroutines/kotlinx-coroutines-core/kotlinx.coroutines/suspend-cancellable-coroutine.html) and use something continuation.invokeOnCancellation { request.unregister(callback) } in order to prevent memory leak and unnecessary callback execution when the lifecycle object is dead. However, I don't see an api to unregister requestListener in ANRequest. Do you think this would be something that is safe to add? I'm happy to help if you don't have bandwidth. Thanks!

I realized I could do request.destroy()
