title: Render layout preview failed in android studio
body: <p>I'm using <em>Android Studio 2.3.3 - Build #AI-162.4069837</em> and my <code>build.gradle</code> dependency block is :</p>
  
  <pre><code>compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:26.0.0-alpha1'
  compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0-alpha1'
  compile 'com.android.support:design:26.0.0-alpha1'
  compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha7'
  compile 'com.android.support:support-vector-drawable:26.0.0-alpha1'
  compile 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:26.0.0-alpha1'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I try to preview layout in design mode, the view does not render in all layouts that use <code>android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout</code> and <code>android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView</code> or ... give the following error-
  <br></p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>the following classes could not be instantiated</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I did clean and rebuild project, clear cache, close and reopen <em>Android Studio</em>, but did not solve the problem.</p>
