Fragment
The Fragment class represents a chunk of DOM that is rendered once with Mithril and then takes
over control of its own DOM and lifecycle.
This is very similar to the Component wrapper class, but is used for more fine-grained control over
the rendering and display of some significant chunks of the DOM. In contrast to components, fragments
do not offer Mithril's lifecycle hooks.
Use this when you want to enjoy the benefits of JSX / VDOM for initial rendering, combined with small helper methods that then make updates to that DOM directly, instead of fully redrawing everything through Mithril.
This should only be used when necessary, and only with m.render. If you are unsure whether you need
this or Component, you probably needComponent`.
