lottie: Support the layer effect

[theashraf]

Hey team

We've encountered an issue with the dotLottie players where a specific animation is not rendering. The main issue is documented here: LottieFiles/dotlottie-web#164.

I ran a Lottie features report using relottie on the mentioned animation and compiled a list of features it utilizes. It appears that ThorVG does not yet support the "layer effect" feature, which is used by this animation. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Here is the list of features identified:

Unfortunately, we cannot use this resource at the moment due to the lack of support for "layer effects." We plan to support it, but it will take a few months. Perhaps, you can find an alternative method to convert this resource without relying on layer effects. For example:

• Using a blurred shadow effect images beneath the leaf shapes.
• Replace the effect with the additional shapes with radial-gradient filling beneath the leaf shapes .

Thank you, @hermet, for the updates
