Remarks
Gets a Canvas for drawing into this surface.
After drawing into the provided Canvas, the caller must invoke #unlockCanvasAndPost to post the new contents to the surface.
Unlike #lockCanvas(Rect) this will return a hardware-accelerated canvas. See the unsupported drawing operations for a list of what is and isn't supported in a hardware-accelerated canvas. It is also required to fully cover the surface every time #lockHardwareCanvas() is called as the buffer is not preserved between frames. Partial updates are not supported.
