Remarks

Creates a mirrored SurfaceControl of the root SurfaceControl hierarchy.

The returned SurfaceControl acts as a new root for the mirrored content, and its properties can be manipulated independently from the original surface. Transformations applied to this returned SurfaceControl will affect the mirrored content, but will not affect the original.

The returned SurfaceControl will be invalid if the mirror creation failed. Caller is responsible to call SurfaceControl.release() for the mirror after usage.
