From 6e164d04743823fca6392ed9cce9e75acd537a0c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] faces/piechart: Use GraphicalEffects.Glow for rendering
 outline of compact text

Apparently using style Text.Outline leads to some pretty bad text
rendering. So instead use Glow from GraphicalEffects to achieve a
similar effect but one that's smoother. Unfortunately this uses
deprecated API because MultiEffect turns out to be completely unusable.

BUG: 494495


(cherry picked from commit 69c7ad2122b1c5dd6fcc3edaa8be4ec597bdfda5)
