feat: add ColumnShapeExtension with per-instance bevel and radius support#5
Conversation
…port This extension adds per-instance bevel shapes (dome, cone, flat) and radius scaling to ColumnLayer for hierarchical/tree visualizations. Based on: - visgl/deck.gl-community#470 (ExperimentalColumnLayer) - visgl#9933 (Original getBevel & getRadius) Following the recommendation from Chris Gervant to implement this as an extension rather than a new layer.
