ShareActionProvider leaks context

[pyricau]

Cool!

While this fixes the leak, I assume it also prevents from receiving the user selection. So I'm guessing you're calling that code once the activity is destroyed?

It would be nice if you could:

1. File an issue on http://b.android.com , with the API version, an explanation, the leak trace, and a simple repro case, and cross link the issue here with that issue there.
2. Do a PR to update AndroidExcludedRefs (and maybe write the hack as a gist and link to it from there)

I'm actually calling that code in onDetachedFromView, although on activity death would work. I'll make a PR and a fix a proper bugreport.

@andaag the sample you wrote in the bug report demonstrate the bug in support v7. That's not the original one you had, which was in AOSP. You should probably update the sample, otherwise you risk being dismissed.

Also, what version of the Android API are you using? This should be included in the bug report as well. And if it's not 22, please reproduce with 22.

If possible, the bug report should also explain what is causing the bug (what assumptions are wrong), and what they can do to fix it.
