How to use Pixel masks and Vector masks together?

Hi! I would like to know how to use both a pixel mask and a vector mask on the same layer. Will I end up with a layer with 2 masks?

Can anyone mention practical example when you could need to use the two types of masks together as it is mentioned in this video?

I had a long explanation typed out, but then it evolved into a tutorial so that I could explain properly.

View the tutorial on Github.

If you have any questions feels free to ask. :)

You can use both on the same mask layer, so you won't get two mask layer.
