For CSS reference filters, Blink should create Skia image filters with fully-specified crop rects.
Currently, for filters which affect transparent black (e.g., lighting, color matrix with non-zero alpha translation), Skia fills the entire clip rect. However, Blink does not set a clip rect for reference filters (since
it's difficult to determine the correct value from a chain of reference and non-reference filters).
An easier solution is for Blink to set crop rects on all filters derived
from SVG nodes, since Blink already has this information. This will also enforce the default 10% margin required by SVG semantics.
