Android 7.0.0-beta.1 - Initial mapview startup results in black screen for a few seconds

[AlexanderEggers]

After updating to Android Mapbox 7.0.0-beta.1, the initial mapview state is a black screen for 1-2s. That issue has been fixed in the past by #12377. Is it possible that some changes broke that implementation? Can I provide more information to help fix that issue?

Mapbox SDK versions: 7.0.0-beta.1

Edit: I tried to define mapbox_foregroundLoadColor, but it had no effect.

This stems from decoupling style loading from OnMapReady, we start to render more early without any content. Will look into patching this up so it behaves as expected.

@tobrun Is it possible that this behavior is fixed for the 7.0.0 release?

I'm having trouble reproducing:

Can you share a minimal reproducible example?

@tobrun I've just created an example project, but I saw that @LukasPaczos already created a PR. Let me know if this example project is still relevant.
