Improve drop shadow effect accuracy (#2523)

These changes make several improvements to how drop shadow effects are displayed:
- Drop shadows now take parent alpha into account. This means that if a layer or fill has an animated opacity, the drop shadow will multiply that opacity with its own.
- Adds drop shadow support to Image layers. There are some visual bugs with how the shadows are rendered, however.
- Applies a constant scale factor to the distance and softness values from the Lottie file before passing them to `Paint.setShadowLayer()` to more closely match how they are displayed in After Effects. See https://github.com/airbnb/lottie-ios/pull/2175 for similar changes on iOS.
- Adds three snapshot test files for distance, softness, and alpha validation.

Distance test file:

Softness test file:

Example of Image layer shadow bug, right side is how it should look (capture from After Effects):

Lottie for Android, iOS, React Native, Web, and Windows

Build Status

Lottie is a mobile library for Android and iOS that parses Adobe After Effects animations exported as json with Bodymovin and renders them natively on mobile!

For the first time, designers can create and ship beautiful animations without an engineer painstakingly recreating it by hand. They say a picture is worth 1,000 words so here are 13,000:

Contributing

Because development has started for Lottie Compose, Gradle, and the Android Gradle Plugin will be kept up to date with the latest canaries. This also requires you to use Android Studio Canary builds. Preview builds can be installed side by side with stable versions.
