Cause: the interior styles were blended over the layer body with the
content's coverage folded into their opacity. On an edge pixel at 50 %
coverage a Gradient or Color Overlay went over the half-transparent body
as a half-transparent layer, so the result kept a quarter of the layer's
own fill and its alpha rose to 0.75: a light rim (the white fill
showing through) on styled text.
Fix: blend_clipped composites the interior styles (Gradient Overlay,
Color Overlay, Satin, Inner Glow, Inner Shadow and the inside of
Stroke) onto the layer within its shape: the body is divided by the
content coverage, blended with the style at its own opacity, and
multiplied back, so the alpha is kept and an edge pixel mixes the style
with the layer's colour inside the shape only, as a clipped layer does.
Fill Opacity and Blend Interior Styles as Group behave as before.
Tests: tests_styles::overlays_leave_antialiased_edges_clean (a masked
square with half-covered edge columns; Color Overlay, Gradient Overlay
and an inside Stroke now match a plain layer of the overlay colour;
Color Overlay's edge was 0.41 red against 0.23 before).

Layer Styles (Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Outer/Inner Glow, Bevel and Emboss, Satin,
Color/Gradient Overlay, Stroke) and Blending Options (Global Light, Fill Opacity, R/G/B,
Knockout, Blend Interior Styles as Group) as a layerStyles property group with AE names,
order and defaults. Rendered in layer space after effects (exterior passes composite with
their own blend modes below the body), cached per pass, scaled with render resolution.
Commands layer.style.* (menu Layer > Layer Styles), Global Light shared per comp, timeline
