Discussion
UIKit calls this method before changing the current object’s traits and before calling the trait method of any affected views and view controllers. Implementors of this method can use it to adapt the interface based on the values in the new parameter. A common use of this method is to make changes to the high-level presentation style when the current size class changes. For example, a container view controller that manages multiple child view controllers might change the number of child view controllers it displays onscreen when the size class changes. A standard view controller might use this method to change the constraints on the views it manages. Use the provided coordinator object to animate any changes you make.
If you override this method in your own objects, always call super at some point in your implementation so that UIKit can forward the trait changes to the associated presentation controller and to any child view controllers. View controllers forward the trait change message to their child view controllers. Presentation controllers forward the trait change to their presented view controller.
