Description
Description
A bunch of Layer properties have the "transitionable" indicator next to them in MapLibre docs. But how do we use them? I can't find a mention of transition (other than viewport/map movement transitions) in docs or questions/discussions/issues. Am I missing something?

Research direction
Start with the MapLibre style-spec layer documentation for the transitionable properties and compare it with the react-map-gl 8.0.4 and maplibre-gl 5.7.0 APIs. Determine whether the wrapper already exposes a transition mechanism or needs a defined API, then document or demonstrate the supported behavior so users can tell how to use these properties.
