ShadowDrawable

The base constructor for all API levels requires an ownerView in order to be able to hook into the hardware-accelerated draw routine.

This View must be attached to the on-screen hierarchy; usually, it's just the one in which the draw happens.

isClipped determines whether the drawable will draw a clipped or a regular shadow, the latter being useful when color compat is needed without the clip. Clipped instances with irregular shapes on API levels 30+ require that the shape Path be set manually through setClipPathProvider.

It is rather important to dispose of these instances when appropriate.

At API level 29, an owner View is not required, but color compat is unavailable for these instances.

It is not necessary to call dispose on these instances, but it is safe to do so.
