and implement then in using some SVG filters and composition.
Composing in using destination-in in order to multiply RGB components by
the alpha from the mask isn't perfect: it'd be a way better to natively have
alpha masks support, it induces some small rounding errors and consequently
computed RGB are approximatively correct.
In term of performance, it's a real improvement, for example, the pdf in
issue #17779 is now rendered in few seconds.
There are still some room for improvement, but overall it should be a way
better.
