/**
 * @brief Creates a clipping image whose geometry (i.e. clip area) can be morphed between a circle and a quad by animating the propertyIndex out parameter.
 *
 * The propertyIndex parameter can be set or animated to CIRCLE_GEOMETRY or QUAD_GEOMETRY depending on the type of clipping required.
 * If set to a value between these two constants, then the resulting geometry will be somewhere in between a circle and a quad.
 *
 * @param[in]   imagePath      The path to the image to show.
 * @param[out]  propertyIndex  Gets set with the property index which the caller can animate using the CIRCLE_GEOMETRY & QUAD_GEOMETRY values.
