AfterEffects ater react to masks

// Make Layers React to a Mask
// Based on knowledge from The Power of Expression Book
// https://aescripts.com/the-power-of-expression/
//
// Requires the new 'Javascript' expressions engine introduced in AE 16.0 (CC2019)
// You can set this in File -> Project Settings: https://drop.aescripts.com/NQurXWmG
// If you replace all "let" to "var" this expression will should work in previous versions
//
// v1 initial version
// v2 added feathering support
// v3 added parenting support
