Feature request: Stepper summaries

What is the expected behavior?

I should be able to add a summary like in the screenshot below.
https://material.io/guidelines/components/steppers.html

What is the current behavior?

It's possible to add a summary inside of the label, but it's verbose (need to check for all cases to/hide display) and requires overriding styles.

Happy to send out a PR if there's interest.

One thing that would need to be worked out first is the a11y story for this. The stepper presents itself as "tabs" for screen-readers. The summary could potentially just be pointed to by aria-describedby on the step label (a "tab").

@jelbourn I know it's the first iteration of the stepper but do you plan to correct the visuals of the stepper or should I open an issue for this? (focus, colors, so many things are wrong)

[jelbourn]

@Ploppy3 please open an issue with specifics if you note any bugs

Hello,
in my use case this feature would be very useful. I wrote my own stepper (based on material specs) to split up a few complex user inputs in sections, and it's very useful to see an uneditable summary of the previous steps while editing the next ones. I'd like to deprecate my own stepper in favour of the "official" one, but this prevents me to do so.

Thank you very much

Isaia

@isametal88 can you please share your stepper?

[isametal88]

Well... It's not that I don't want to, I don't know how to :-). I never took the time to learn how to pack a component and make it downloadable outside my project :-P
I think it's best for you to wait for this official release ;-)

If you want to share just push the relevant code on a Gist, as much as I would like to wait for an official release I have deadlines so I would have to develop a custom component anyway.
