Description
The badge gravity consists of TOP_START， TOP_END, BOTTOM_START and BOTTOM_END currently. But consider a very simple layout, a width-wrap-content text button with an icon on top of the text.
Usually we hope the badge is at the top_end of the icon. But the width of the button is different in different languages because the width of "My Cart" varies. If the badge gravity support TOP ( which means vertically on the top and horizontally in the middle), the badge can be easily positioned with the gravity TOP and some horizontal offset.
