- Hue: Creates a result color with the luminance and saturation
of the base color and the hue of the blend color.
- Color: Creates a result color with the luminance of the base color
and the hue and saturation of the blend color. This preserves the gray
levels in the image and is useful for coloring monochrome images and
for tinting color images.
- Luminosity: reates a result color with the hue and saturation of the base color
and the luminance of the blend color. This mode creates the inverse effect of
Color mode.
- Saturation: Creates a result color with the luminance and hue of
the base color and the saturation of the blend color. Painting with this mode
in an area with no (0) saturation (gray) causes no change.
- HardMix: Adds the bottom & top. If the resulting sum for a channel is 255 or
greater, it receives a value of 255; if less than 255, a value of 0.

The composition mode enables intermediate blending. When a scene
uses Composition mode, it generates an intermediate buffer to
render the scene image first. This image can then be blended
with the canvas afterward.
Please avoid to use this, unless you really need to composite
the precomposite scene. This feature is relatively expensive
at performance.

- introduced a blending factor to control the mix between the original color and the tritone effect.
- improved Lottie compliance with this enhancement.
- implemented the spec by all engines

- corrected the reversed black/white intensity multiplication.
- made a minor adjustment to the luma equation.
- updated and aligned the API documentation accordingly.

This change ensures at the api level that if the focal
point lies outside the end circle, it is projected onto
the edge of the end circle.
Additionally, if the start circle does not fully fit
inside the end circle (after possible repositioning), its
radius is reduced accordingly.
The modification aligns with the SVG 1.1 standard (for fr = 0).
Cases with fr > 0 are not covered by the SVG 1.1, and edge
cases have been handled here to avoid numerical issues.
Note:
This update replaces previous behavior where gl handled
the SVG 2.0 standard.
The API allows now values <= 0 for dashes and gaps. Negative values
are treated as zero. The exception is when all provided values
are <= 0, in which case the dash is ignored.
This fixes the issue when dash = 0 was provided for strokes with round
or butt caps - the dot was not drawn, even though it should have been.
docs: the strokeDash API behavior's clarification for odd numbers
of values in dashPattern and refinement of the accepted values.
Removed the paint parameter previously used to forcibly
update a single paint.
This behavior was unsafe in ThorVG, as a single paint
object may be connected to others through the scene graph.
Now, the canvas engine is responsible for properly updating
all damaged paints as needed, allowing the user to simply
call update() in any case.

* Result Canvas::update(Paint* paint) -> Result Canvas::update()

ThorVG cap/join enums and lottie specs were not aligned.
Problem was observed for StrokeCap::Square and StrokeJoin::Bevel.
Note: this change breaks backward comatibility.
This function sets the value of a specified expression variable within a particular layer.
It is useful for dynamically changing the properties of a layer at runtime.
Experimental API
- Result LottieAnimation::assign(const char* layer, uint32_t ix, const char* variable, float value)
- Tvg_Result tvg_lottie_animation_assign(Tvg_Animation* animation, const char* layer, uint32_t ix, const char* var, float val)
- modify the concept of AABB to apply only to transformed shapes.
- transform points before computing the bounding box min/max
to obtain a more compact shape region.
- trimmming memory by removing the cached matrix, about 36kb
of memory has been reduced per paint instance.
added 2 more APIs for user convenience to allow backtracking tree traversal.
API Additions:
- const Paint* Paint::scene() const
- const Tvg_Paint* tvg_paint_get_scene(const Tvg_Paint* paint)
We have improved the functionality to manage the memory pool safely,
by figuring out the current working threads. Users no longer need to
manually configure memory pool management, and the related APIs
have been removed.
API Removals:
- Result SwCanvas::mempool(MempoolPolicy policy)
- enum SwCanvas::MempoolPolicy
- Tvg_Result tvg_swcanvas_set_mempool(Tvg_Canvas* canvas, Tvg_Mempool_Policy policy)
- enum Tvg_Mempool_Policy

frame tweening allows user to interpolate two frames
over a speicified duration. This Tweening functionality
can be particularly powerful when combined with state-based
(a.k.a. Marker) animation playback in Lottie.
For example, apps support state machine based animations,
where the transition sequences between states are not linear
and can occur in highly irregular directions.
Experimental APIs:
- Result LottieAnimation::tween(float from, float to, float progress)
- Tvg_Result tvg_lottie_animation_tween(Tvg_Animation* animation, float from, float to, float progress)
Changed the unit of the segment from a normalized value to frame numbers,
ensuring alignment with other frame control interfaces.
Note that This change may break backward compatibility.
