Description

I have a feature request:

What about being able to animate the backdropFilter property as well?

I think we could easily add the following filters for backdropFilter within react-plx pretty easily, since they only use linear values:

blur();
brightness();
contrast();
grayscale();
hue-rotate();
invert();
opacity();
sepia();
saturate();

I would not add drop-shadow since we would have to accept four arguments here: drop-shadow(4px 4px 10px blue);.

Furthermore I can not think of a way to animate the svg filters via backdrop-filter: url(commonfilters.svg#filter);

I am gladly willing to contribute and open a PR if you approve the feature :)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement the listed CSS filters (blur, brightness, contrast, grayscale, hue rotate, invert, opacity, sepia, saturate) for the backdropFilter property in the react plx animation system. Ensure linear interpolation works for each filter function.
