It's just a surface area reduction. Returning Listenable only allows a
caller to add and remove listeners (which you want). Returning the subtype
ListenableContainer would let a caller manipulate the collection, i.e. size(),
clear(), and forEach(). How weird would it be for an external caller to be
able to do `cache.getListenable().forEach(...)`?
