/**
 * The Stack component is a useful layout utility in a component-based model.
 * This allows components to not use margin and instead delegate the
 * responsibility of positioning and layout to parent components.
 *
 * In the case of the Stack component, it uses the spacing scale from the
 * Design Language in order to determine how much space there should be between
 * items rendered by the Stack component. It also supports a custom `gap` prop
 * which will allow a user to provide a custom value for the gap of the layout.
 *
 * This component supports both horizontal and vertical orientations.
 *
