Add API to replace children #2301 #2591

Closed funkyrailroad closed 1 month ago

funkyrailroad commented 1 month ago

Added replace and index methods to base widget class and minimal test cases. Added another test case to verify the functionality of children access/assignment via square bracket notation __setitem__/ __getitem__.

This allows users to replace a child widget with another with a single method, instead of needing to remove the old one, keep track of the index, and insert a new one.

Fixes #2301
