  Maintains checkpoint dependencies on its contents (which must also be

  Note that `List` is purely a container. It lets a `tf.keras.Model` or
  other checkpointable object know about its contents, but does not call any
  `Layer` instances which are added to it. To indicate a sequence of `Layer`
  instances which should be called sequentially, use `tf.keras.Sequential`.

  Example usage:
  ```python
  class HasList(tf.keras.Model):

    def __init__(self):
      super(HasList, self).__init__()

  This kind of wrapping is necessary because `Checkpointable` objects do not
  (yet) deeply inspect regular Python data structures, so for example assigning
  a regular list (`self.layer_list = [layers.Dense(3)]`) does not create a
  checkpoint dependency and does not add the `Layer` instance's weights to its
  parent `Model`.

# dictionary to avoid synchronization bugs (un-tracked external modifications

# patching all of the "wrapped" dict's methods instead of creating a wrapper
# object is an option, but not a very attractive one (replacing methods without
