SfBackdropPage Enhancements Needed

SfBackdropPage is a great control but it could use a few minor enhancements:

  1. The ability to set OpenIcon & CloseIcon as ImageSource. These properties are type string. Consider adding new OpenImageSource, CloseImageSource properties of type ImageSource to allow setting the icon using Xamarin.Forms.Svg SvgImageSource.
  2. Add a bindable property for OpenText & CloseText. The only way to change this currently is to add code behind to change ToolbarItems[0].Text.
