     21  * We use a Singleton for a global copy of the NotificationCompat.Builder to update active
     22  * Notifications from other Services/Activities.
     23  *
     24  * You have two options for updating your notifications:
     25  *
     26  *  1. Use a new NotificationCompatBuilder to create the Notification. This approach requires you
     27  *  to get *ALL* the information and pass it to the builder. We get all the information from a Mock
     28  *  Database and this is the approach used in the MainActivity.
     29  *
     30  *  2. Use an existing NotificationCompatBuilder to create a Notification. This approach requires
     31  *  you to store a reference to the original builder. The benefit is you only need the new/updated
     32  *  information for an existing notification. We use this approach in the IntentService handlers to
     33  *  update existing notifications.
     34  *
     35  *  IMPORTANT NOTE 1: You shouldn't save/modify the resulting Notification object using
     36  *  its member variables and/or legacy APIs. If you want to retain anything from update
     37  *  to update, retain the Builder as option 2 outlines.
     38  *
     39  *  IMPORTANT NOTE 2: If the global Notification Builder is lost because the process is killed, you
     40  *  should have a way to recreate the Notification Builder from a persistent state. (We do this as
     41  *  well in the sample, check the IntentServices.)
