Start using the Feature State API

adrianababakanian commented 4 years ago

Currently, GL Draw does not utilize the Feature State API. Starting to use feature state would result in several benefits, such as:

Reduced flickering, which is currently caused by moving between "hot" and "cold" layers.
The ability to add hover effects to drawn features (as demonstrated in this example).
Reduced CPU usage, since queryRenderedFeatures would not need to be run for every mouse move.
A potential way to pass userProperties to midpoints and vertices (see https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-draw/pull/964 for additional related discussion).

This sounds like it would be a great improvement to the library :+1: What would the next steps look like do you think? I may be able to help here if I get a sense of the amount of work and what needs doing.
