Hey guys, I was looking into adding support to Core Graphics backend a few months ago (https://github.com/brunogouveia/piet/commits/piet-core-graphics), but I never had the time to finish.
I looked into the current core graphics backend implementation and I noticed text rendering with gradient brushes was missing, so I created this PR adding gradient support, that uses the same approach I used on my branch: set
text drawing mode
to clip and render the gradient afterwards.
