was there a new shadow API in the making or did i dream of that?

found it <https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/2594888>

It came out this last Wednesday in 1.9.0-alpha04: <https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose-ui#1.9.0-alpha04|https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose-ui#1.9.0-alpha04>

It was reverted then merged back with fixes, this usually means we should wait for next release.

I wonder why the `offset` parameter was considered for `InnerShadow` but not `DropShadow` :thinking_face:

Is it because using the existing `offset` Modifier is possible by chaining it appropriately with the `DropShadow` but not with `InnerShadow`?

The offset for an inner shadow changes the geometry of the intermediate shaders. For drop shadow it is just a change in translation.
