Description

Target Use Case

I would like to draw circles with a dashed outline on my DeckGL map.

Proposal

Add the getDashArray accessor to the options of ScatterPlotLayer and use it similar to PolygonLayer, or draw the outline of ScatterPlotLayer using PathLayer so PathStyleExtension can be used.

Research direction

Start by comparing ScatterPlotLayer with PolygonLayer, PathLayer, and PathStyleExtension to understand how outline styling and accessors are handled. Resolve which proposed approach fits the existing layer design, then verify that circles can render with a dashed outline through the resulting API.
