Applied the compromised approach for the gaussian blur
since the effect is a bit burdensome for cpu processing
as animatable effects.
- Optimized performance and quality with negligible observable differences.
- Disabled the border option until specific use cases are identified.
RenderMethod effects methods would have changes:
+ update() //update the effects if any
- prepare() -> region() //update the effect drawing region
- effect() -> render() //draw the effect
The Tritone effect maps the scene's shadows, midtones, and highlights
to three specific colors, allowing for more complex and artistic color grading.
Applied Tritone Formula:
if (L < 0.5) Result = (1 - 2L) * Shadow + 2L * Midtone
else Result = (1 - 2(L - 0.5)) * Midtone + (2(L - 0.5)) * Highlight
Where the L is Luminance.

The Tint effect in ThorVG is used to modify the overall color tone of a scene.
It works by blending a specified tint color with the existing colors of the scene.
This effect is useful for color grading, mood changes, or applying thematic filters
to vector graphics and animations.
Applied the equation is:
Result = (1 - L) * Black + L * White, where the L is Luminance.

- OpenMp threads will be allocated alongside the TaskSculeduler::threads()
- Performance improved by 2x in a specific animation.
- Disable the thread feature in the Android build test due to system issues with OpenMP compilation.
Scene effects are typically applied to modify
the final appearance of a rendered scene,
such as adding a blur effect.
Each effect would have a different number of parameters
to control its visual properties. The Scene::push() interface
uses variadic arguments to accommodate various cases.
Users should refer to the SceneEffect API documentation
and pass the parameters exactly as required for the specific
effect type. For instance, GaussianBlur expects 3 parameters
which are:
- sigma(float)[greater than 0]
- direction(int)[both: 0 / horizontal: 1 / vertical: 2]
- border(int)[extend: 0 / wrap: 1]
- quality(int)[0 ~ 100]
and, scene->push(SceneEffect::GaussianBlur, 5.0f, 0, 0, 100);
New Experimental APIs:
- SceneEffect::ClearAll
- SceneEffect::GaussianBlur
- Result Scene::push(SceneEffect effect, ...);
