ScaffoldFinder class abstract

Finds the ScaffoldState whose chrome an overlay shown from a given context will appear over.

Scaffold.maybeOf only walks upwards, so it misses the very common shape where a page shows an overlay from its own build/State context:

Widget build(BuildContext context) {   // <- this context is ABOVE the Scaffold
  return Scaffold(appBar: AppBar(...), body: ...);
}

void _onSaved() => context.show(...);  // must still clear the app bar

This helper keeps the unambiguous upward answer as the first choice and only descends when there is none.
