showShimmer(true) would not start the shimmer

[fullmoon6661]

Calling showShimmer(true) while having attribute app:shimmer_auto_start="false" would show the shimmer but doesn't start the shimmer. I'm guessing because the following function would return immediately without checking if the shimmer has started.

/**
* Sets the ShimmerDrawable to be visible.
* @param startShimmer Whether to start the shimmer again.
*/
public void showShimmer(boolean startShimmer) {
    if (mShowShimmer) { // mShowShimmer=true
        return;
    }
    mShowShimmer = true;
    if (startShimmer) {
        startShimmer();
    }
}

The param there is just a convenience when showing the shimmer the first time. If its already visible then you want to use startShimmer(). The ergonomics of the function suck though, so I'll remove the early return since it doesn't seem to be preventing much
