Feature request: support for Path2D

[jahnotto]

It would be useful to be able to use a Path2D. Any chance this can be added?

Thanks for making such a great canvas wrapper!

I suspect that this could be relatively easy to add, since the Path2D API looks rather small.

Unfortunately, I don't have the capacity to do any of this, but I'm happy to review pull requests.

Thanks for your super quick reply. Understandable -- I know the feeling!

As an alternative, I'm trying to use batch.StoreAsync(string path). However, this just gives me a black canvas if I try to pass an SVG like

await batch.StrokeAsync("M150 0 L75 200 L225 200 Z");

Should the path be defined with a different syntax than SVG?

Have a look at the sample code:

https://github.com/excubo-ag/Blazor.Canvas/blob/main/TestProject_Components/Pages/Context2D/DrawingPaths.razor#L115

The option to draw a path with a string argument is for referencing a path object by name. SVG is therefore not compatible here.
