/**
 * Utility class for constructing synthetic back stacks for cross-task navigation
 * on Android 3.0 and newer.
 *
 * <p>In API level 11 (Android 3.0/Honeycomb) the recommended conventions for
 * app navigation using the back key changed. The back key's behavior is local
 * to the current task and does not capture navigation across different tasks.
 * Navigating across tasks and easily reaching the previous task is accomplished
 * through the "recents" UI, accessible through the software-provided Recents key
 * on the navigation or system bar. On devices with the older hardware button configuration
 * the recents UI can be accessed with a long press on the Home key.</p>
 *
 * <p>When crossing from one task stack to another post-Android 3.0,
 * the application should synthesize a back stack/history for the new task so that
 * the user may navigate out of the new task and back to the Launcher by repeated
 * presses of the back key. Back key presses should not navigate across task stacks.</p>
 *
 * <p>TaskStackBuilder provides a way to obey the correct conventions
 * around cross-task navigation.</p>
 *
 * <div class="special reference">
 * <h3>About Navigation</h3>
 * For more detailed information about tasks, the back stack, and navigation design guidelines,
 * please read
 * <a href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/fundamentals/tasks-and-back-stack.html">Tasks and Back Stack</a>
 * from the developer guide and <a href="{@docRoot}design/patterns/navigation.html">Navigation</a>
 * from the design guide.
