Perfomance improvement by applying lazy var

Add unit tests to the framework

Currently, the framework is lagging unit testing. Add some unit test.

Loader for TableView Cells is hardcoded in Library

let coverableCellsIds = ["Cell1", "Cell1", "Cell1", "Cell1", "Cell1"] if type(of: view!) === UITableView.self { for i in 0..<coverableCellsIds.count { getTableViewPath(view, index: i, coverableCellsIds: coverableCellsIds) } addCover(view) return }

Using Loading Shimmer changes view background color

Actual Behaviour
Using Loading Shimmer changes a view's background color (always white background).

Expected Behaviour
Using Loading Shimmer honors the target view's background color, via using it as the backdrop while blurring its contained elements.

Steps to reproduce it

1. Have a view with a background color.
2. Cover that view with a loading shimmer via LoadingShimmer.startCovering(view)
3. Hide the loading shimmer via LoadingShimmer.stopCovering(view)

Observe that the original background color is not honored.

When using Pod, not able to access access class due to internal access

I integrated using Pod, but couldn't able to access LoadingShimmer class due to default internal access of class.

I made public access to that class by putting public keyword.

public class LoadingShimmer: NSObject {
    public static let shared = LoadingShimmer()

    public class func startCovering(_ view: UIView?) {
        shared.coverSubviews(view)
    }

    public class func stopCovering(_ view: UIView?) {
        shared.removeSubviews(view)
    }

}

Would you please do the same changes in repo.

Thanks.
