FlowElementContainer

public class FlowElementContainer<T>

The idea of have FlowElementContainer is a way of have the reference encapsulated inside a object that we can manage the reference to our real object, as we will be using this inside an array, we need to be able to destroy easily our array without have the risk of some view controller hold the reference to the object
