MaskedView support for Android

See original GitHub issue

This issue was originally created by @IljaDaderko as facebook/react-native#19546.


For Discussion

I’ve worked on view demonstrated below today, very pleasant experience while using MaskedViewIOS In essence it masks Orc graphic with that dark cloud / smoky mask. On android however, I was not able to find anything similar from community and after 3h of trying to create a native component bridge for this, I came nowhere close 😕

Hence I wanted to start this discussion, shall we make MaskedView more general and support it for Android as well, or are there some limitations that don’t allow this (hence only IOS implementation at the moment?)

@cpojer MaskedView should be made more general and support it for Android as well. This would be great to have MaskedView for Android 👍

I managed to accomplish this for both Android and iOS using Svg masking features. See ‘expo svg’
