SVG export: shadows in a masked group show in readers that bound it by its shapes

Some SVG readers draw a masked group only inside the bounding box of its
shapes. A drop shadow, glow, blur or feather inside the group paints past
those shapes, so these readers left it out, while others drew it.

A masked group now starts with a rectangle over the mask's region,
unpainted (fill="none") and hidden (visibility="hidden"), when what it
holds has a visible raster effect: on a member at any depth, on a fill or
stroke, in a symbol's art, or in the art a blend or other live object is
written as. The rectangle widens the group's bounding box without drawing
anything, and import leaves it out. The masked groups of a knockout group
get the same rectangle when an element inside them has such an effect.
Other masked art, brushed strokes included, is written as before, and so
is an object whose own effects are written outside its mask.

Tests: a_masked_group_spans_its_region_when_its_art_paints_past_its_shapes
and a_knockout_group_spans_its_masks_when_an_element_paints_past_its_shapes
in crates/svg/tests/it/blend_export.rs.
