[jira] [Created] (SLING-8631) Introduce state for extensions

Carsten Ziegeler created SLING-8631:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Introduce state for extensions
                 Key: SLING-8631
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8631
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Feature Model
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
            Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
             Fix For: Feature Model 1.0.8


Currently an extension is either required or optional. However, the extensions of the feature model also allow to keep transient state like a cache of calculations. For example, the result of scanning a feature could be attached to a feature model to avoid rescanning of downstream users.
Therefore we should probably add a method to get the state of an extension with the values TRANSIENT,OPTIONAL,REQUIRED
