  /**
   * <p>A LiveFolder is a special folder whose content is provided by a
   * {@link android.content.ContentProvider}. To create a live folder, two components
   * are required:</p>
   * <ul>
   *  <li>An activity that can respond to the intent action {@link #ACTION_CREATE_LIVE_FOLDER}. The
   *  activity is responsible for creating the live folder.</li>
   *  <li>A {@link android.content.ContentProvider} to provide the live folder items.</li>
   * </ul>
   *
   * <h3>Lifecycle</h3>
   * <p>When a user wants to create a live folder, the system looks for all activities with the
   * intent filter action {@link #ACTION_CREATE_LIVE_FOLDER} and presents the list to the user.
   * When the user chooses one of the activities, the activity is invoked with the
   * {@link #ACTION_CREATE_LIVE_FOLDER} action. The activity then creates the live folder and
   * passes it back to the system by setting it as an
   * {@link android.app.Activity#setResult(int, android.content.Intent) activity result}. The
   * live folder is described by a content provider URI, a name, an icon and a display mode.
   * Finally, when the user opens the live folder, the system queries the content provider
   * to retrieve the folder's content.</p>
   *
   * <h3>Setting up the live folder activity</h3>
   * <p>The following code sample shows how to write an activity that creates a live folder:</p>
   * <pre>
   * public static class MyLiveFolder extends Activity {
   *     public static final Uri CONTENT_URI = Uri.parse("content://my.app/live");
   *
   *     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
   *         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
   *
   *         final Intent intent = getIntent();
   *         final String action = intent.getAction();
   *
   *         if (LiveFolders.ACTION_CREATE_LIVE_FOLDER.equals(action)) {
   *             setResult(RESULT_OK, createLiveFolder(this, CONTENT_URI, "My LiveFolder",
   *                     R.drawable.ic_launcher_contacts_phones));
   *         } else {
   *             setResult(RESULT_CANCELED);
   *         }
   *
   *         finish();
   *     }
   *
   *     private static Intent createLiveFolder(Context context, Uri uri, String name,
   *             int icon) {
   *
   *         final Intent intent = new Intent();
   *
   *         intent.setData(uri);
   *         intent.putExtra(LiveFolders.EXTRA_LIVE_FOLDER_NAME, name);
   *         intent.putExtra(LiveFolders.EXTRA_LIVE_FOLDER_ICON,
   *                 Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext(context, icon));
   *         intent.putExtra(LiveFolders.EXTRA_LIVE_FOLDER_DISPLAY_MODE, LiveFolders.DISPLAY_MODE_LIST);
   *
   *         return intent;
   *     }
   * }
   * </pre>
   * <p>The live folder is described by an {@link android.content.Intent} as follows:</p>
   * <table border="2" width="85%" align="center" frame="hsides" rules="rows">
