Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I there a way to use deck.gl PathStyleExtension within keplel.gl? I need to draw line that represents road and have to have ability to offset the line right and left and render dashed lines. All this is handled by PathStyleExtension.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to programmatically configure kepler.gl to render layers (PathLayer, LineLayer, GeoJsonLayer) using PathStyleExtension.

Research direction
Investigate how kepler.gl currently handles deck.gl layers in its layer factory (e.g., src/layers). Review deck.gl's PathStyleExtension documentation and examples. Determine where to inject the extension configuration into the layer props. Look at existing extensions like BrushingExtension for guidance.
