Hi, thanks for a great library.

my issue is very similar to this: https://github.com/luizgrp/SectionedRecyclerViewAdapter/issues/130

what i want to do is hide empty sections, i've tried various ways to do that, but i'm failing it constantly. I believe someone could instantly point out what i must do in order to hide a section that's empty.

` val headerHolder = holder as HeaderViewHolder

    if (sectionItemsTotal<=1){
        headerHolder.itemView.cl_lesson_header.visibility = View.GONE
        holder.itemView.visibility = View.GONE
    }`

this works, but shows empty views instead. tried sectionAdapter!!.notifyDataSetChanged() but it doesn't really help the case.

also, this i'm trying to do it upon creation, while removal in the examples were done onclick which were already loaded. i just want to make sure when creating sections, if any section is empty, let it not be created, can someone pls point me to that example or so?

There's a method setHasHeader for Section, has you tried that?
