Naming and argument order is TBD. I was also considering useImperativeCollectionRef or something alike. Open for suggestions here 👍

This PR adds support for hooking into the builder of child collections via a new
useCollectionRefhook. This hook supports the attachment of wrapper hooks to the ref of the collection element, which enables advanced controlled use cases, such as a targeted clearance of the renderer context in components with adjacent collection components as children.Spoiler: We will make use of this in the upcoming
Carousel, which supports an adjacentTabListnext to aGridListorListBoxfor the tabbed carousel pattern 👍✅ Pull Request Checklist:
