Emit from file observer when the connection is established
There is a race condition in our IPC design where if the
IPC needs some initialization, DataStore has no way of waiting
for that initialization.
So when DataStore wants to run logic similar to:
1) start observing IPC
2) read the file
3) wait for IPC upadtes
Ideally, DataStore would want to do this to ensure it never misses
an update when it is observed, yet it does not have the mechanism
wait for IPC to be ready. The only API it has is `Flow<Unit>` from
the IPC but it rather needs either:
a) Flow<Event>, enum Event{STARTED, CHANGE_DETECTED}
or
b) suspend fun observe():Flow<Unit> which could return after
initialization is complete.
b is not super practical because it runs into another problem where
the Flow may never be collected. a is the better solution as it
provides the state as events and DataStore can wait for STARTED
before reading to avoid missing events.
Note that Flow.onStart is not an option here because it is called before
the contents of the Flow computation starts, hence does not wait for
the FileSystem communication.
We did in fact hit this problem when writing tests for MP-IPC, hence
the internals of it emitted after establishing the connection to the
Filesystem but dropped that initial emission in the public API's
implementation.
This CL makes MP-IPC also dispatch that initial Unit in its public
API implementation, which in practice means it will be dispatching
a Change notification after it connects to the FileSystem.
This does not ensure (2) happens before (1) but it
ensures (3) does not miss an event if (2) happens before (1) starts.
Note that this does not cause an extra read on the FS if the file
didn't change after (2) because we have the version in shared counter
so the change should not have a noticable perf impact.

Test: did run it 200 times in P71532587/targets/androidx_device_tests
and also 2K times on a local emulator and firebase (matrix-2dop3ihikvsfy).

Jetpack is a suite of libraries, tools, and guidance to help developers write high-quality apps easier. These components help you follow best practices, free you from writing boilerplate code, and simplify complex tasks, so you can focus on the code you care about.
Jetpack comprises the androidx.* package libraries, unbundled from the platform APIs. This means that it offers backward compatibility and is updated more frequently than the Android platform, making sure you always have access to the latest and greatest versions of the Jetpack components.
Our official AARs and JARs binaries are distributed through Google Maven.
You can learn more about using it from Android Jetpack landing page.
For contributions via GitHub, see the GitHub Contribution Guide.
Note: The contributions workflow via GitHub is currently experimental - only contributions to the following projects are being accepted at this time:
When contributing to Jetpack, follow the code review etiquette.
We are not currently accepting new modules.
Head over to the onboarding docs to learn more about getting set up and the development workflow!
Our continuous integration system builds all in progress (and potentially unstable) libraries as new changes are merged. You can manually download these AARs and JARs for your experimentation.

AndroidX uses git to store all the binary Gradle dependencies. They are stored in prebuilts/androidx/internal and prebuilts/androidx/external directories in your checkout. All the dependencies in these directories are also available from google(), or mavenCentral(). We store copies of these dependencies to have hermetic builds. You can pull in a new dependency using our importMaven tool.
