shaped-texture: Disable mipmapping during animation

This avoids overwhelming the GPU with trying to update mipmaps at a high
rate. Because doing so could easily cause a reduction in the compositor
frame rate and thus actually reduce visual quality.

In the case of a window that is constantly animating in the overview,
this reduces mutter's render time by around 20%-30%.
