RunGameOptions.StrictContextRestoration was introduced at #3083, but we realized that the current restoration implementation was not stable (though the code was the same as the previous one!), and perhaps just graceful shutting down for context losts (#3097) was enough in order to reduce ANR and crashes reported at the Play console.
We are now experimenting if the graceful-shutdown way would work well. If it works, I'll retract the option RunGameOptions.StrictContextRestoration before 2.8 is released. I don't remove the implementation of internal/restorable since possibly we might want to use it later in the future. If we don't need it for one year or so, we can remove internal/restorable again.
Why is this needed?
I don't want to add an uncertain thing to the public API.
