Signal class sealed

A named, type-safe message emitter.

A subscription outlives the statement that made it and freezes the handler it was given, so it both leaks and goes stale unless something owns it.

Subscribing inside a Node.build hands that ownership to the node: the cleanup goes straight into its Node.trash, so the handler is resubscribed fresh by every build and torn down with the node. The returned Cleanup is a no-op there.

Everywhere else the caller owns the subscription: keep the Cleanup and call it, e.g. from flutter_hooks.
