Closable alert

Renders an alert component with type prop.

• Use the useState() hook to create the isShown and isLeaving state variables and set both to false initially.
• Define timeoutId to keep the timer instance for clearing on component unmount.
• Use the useEffect() hook to update the value of isShown to true and clear the interval by using timeoutId when the component is unmounted.
• Define a closeAlert function to set the component as removed from the DOM by displaying a fading out animation and set isShown to false via setTimeout().
