/**
* A span that applies a shear (skew) transformation to the vertical writing text.
*
* This span inherits from [MetricAffectingSpan], but it is specifically designed for use within a
* [VerticalTextLayout] and will not have an effect in other contexts.
*
* It is used to achieve an italic-like effect for vertical text layout, where traditional italic
* fonts may not render correctly.
*
* The shear value represents the horizontal skew factor for rotated or tate-chu-yoko text. For
* upright text, this value is used as the vertical skew factor.
*
* See [DEFAULT_FONT_SHEAR] for the default value.
*
* Note: This span only works with VerticalTextLayout.
*
* @property fontShear The shear factor to apply to the text.

* Angles in the range of 8 to 12 degrees are widely considered to provide a visually
* balanced emphasis while maintaining readability, aligning with the general slope observed
* in many Roman italic and oblique typefaces.
*
* This specific value is adopted from the W3C Timed Text Markup Language 2 (TTML2)
* specification for the
* [tts:fontShear](https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/REC-ttml2-20181108/#style-attribute-fontShear)
