[Bug 1500483] [NEW] [sdk] animate header component when app comes back to the foreground

 

Public bug reported:

When the header is hidden by scrolling it out of the view in an app, and
the user switches between apps, when an app comes back to the
foreground, the header instantly appears again. This means when going
back to a previous app, the app is not in exactly the same state as
where the user left it.

Example:
- Open gallery-app
- Scroll down to hide the header (you need to have enough photos in the gallery to scroll down).
- Long left/right edge swipe to hide send the gallery-app to the background
- Re-open the gallery app

Result:
The gallery-app re-opens with the header visible.


This can be confusing for the user.
Two possible solutions:
1. Show the header when re-opening the app, but animate it so the user knows what is happening
2. Don't do anything. Header stays hidden and the user can show it as they normally would.

After discussing with Olga, we decided to go for solution 1. The header
will show, but it must animate.
