useTransition & others: use the Values API?

[weaverryan]

Hi again!

I was trying to use the transition behavior's controller class directly today without writing any custom JavaScript. It is, of course, totally possible to do this :). Except that the options - e.g. hiddenClass or transitioned don't appear to have a way to set them via HTML attributes.

Could we add a way to set these via HTML attributes? And I would love for it to use the Values API. In the Symfony world (where I come from), we have a helper that makes setting values on a controller dead simple and clean.

And while it is currently possible to use data attributes to set things like enter-active, I think these should also be settable via the values API. We don't need to remove the current way of setting them as data attributes, just add the ability to use options :).

WDYT? Thanks!

Yes exactly, I have a WIP branch on exactly this topic. And this should be generalised to other mixins too.
