ListItem should call out that it's intentionally fixed height #7318
Description
#7311 (comment)
We've had other (internal) customers with this confusion too. We should even consider renaming it MaterialListItem to be more clear (since the material namespace doesn't really do much). A paragraph explaining that it's intentionally fixed height and what to do instead seems useful?
Thoughts @Hixie?

I have a post-it on my desk with the new name. It's part of the post-refactor cleanup.

The doc part will go in a patch soon.

The plan is top rename ListItem to ListTile. The docs will emphasize ListTile's fixed height aspect earlier.
Calling this widget ListItem caused some confusion because the name implies that the widget is a universal list entry. One that's an arbitrary size and not Material Design specific. The Material Design spec uses the term "tile" for list entries which is evocative of something that comes in fixed sizes.
