compositeSourceIn: Multiplicative Alpha Masking

Source Visibility Through Destination Alpha Control​

The source in composite operation performs multiplicative masking where source color visibility is directly controlled by destination alpha values through multiplication.

sourceIn=src×αdst\text{sourceIn} = src \times \alpha_{dst}
