Start using the Feature State API

[adrianababakanian]

Currently, GL Draw does not utilize the Feature State API. Starting to use feature state would result in several benefits, such as:

• Reduced flickering, which is currently caused by moving between "hot" and "cold" layers.
• The ability to add hover effects to drawn features (as demonstrated in this example).
• Reduced CPU usage, since queryRenderedFeatures would not need to be run for every mouse move.
• A potential way to pass userProperties to midpoints and vertices (see Pass userProperties to midpoints and vertices  #964 for additional related discussion).

This sounds like it would be a great improvement to the library 👍 What would the next steps look like do you think? I may be able to help here if I get a sense of the amount of work and what needs doing.

Any news on this? Can't find much in the issues.
Cheers.
