<mask> area doesn't get expanded beyond object's bounding box

[stanio]

It appears <mask> area doesn't get expanded beyond the bounding box of the object it is applied to:

• mask-0.svg, mask-1.svg, mask-2.svg

It could "shrink" inside the object's bounding box, though. The most apparent effect is that a stroke that goes beyond the object's bounding box gets clipped from view.

mask-0.svg

    <mask id="aperture" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse"
        x="0" y="0" width="500" height="500">

Actual	Expected

mask-1.svg

    <mask id="aperture" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse"
        x="50" y="50" width="450" height="450">

Actual	Expected

mask-2.svg

    <mask id="aperture" maskUnits="userSpaceOnUse"
        x="60" y="60" width="440" height="440">

Initially found in #64 (comment)

This should be fixed in the latest snapshot

Trying out current 1.5.0-SNAPSHOT (gradlew --refresh-dependencies → 1.5.0-20240304.002615-19) – the outer stroke is now fully visible but a different defect appears. Looks like the overall mask is scaled (enlarged):

mask-0	mask-1	mask-2

Notice the circular hole is bigger than the debug overlay that uses the same path as for the mask. A thick semi-transparent ring is also visible.

This is related to #66. I have a fix locally, will push once #67 is resolved. I noticed that the library I am using to compare images in tests doesn’t handle transparent pixels and thus multiple tests have failed silently for the past few versions. I need to catch up with those before work on subpixel alignment can be continued.

Just tried with a current 1.5.0-SNAPSHOT – it now (currently) appears just right.
