Add additional annotation options

  • Add transparency option to annotation background

  • Add functionality to draw some basic shapes (lines, arrows, boxes, ovals) to mark up visualizations

Enabling transparency for the annotation background, and enabling users to add some basic shapes to the annotation layer would make annotations more useful.
