A ListView is like a Scrollview but it should have a `for` element, and the content are
automatically laid out in a list.
Elements are only instantiated if they are visible

```slint playground
import { ListView, VerticalBox } from "std-widgets.slint";
export component Example inherits Window {
    width: 150px;
    height: 150px;

    VerticalBox {
        ListView {
            for data in [
