Jonas Dreßler 4cad96ed24 clutter/actor: Cache the visible paint volume
If no actors have changed their positions and we're only repainting
because a window needs a repaint, the paint volumes of all actors
remain unchanged. There is no reason to redo those paint volumes on every
stage update.

So introduce caching and invalidation logic for the visible_paint_volume
that allows us to avoid a ton of matrix multiplications that right now
are happening for the whole mapped actor tree on every redraw.

Note that this removes two places where the visible paint volume is set
to an empty paint volume: This is a compromise so that we can keep
around the cached pv when hiding and showing an actor, it does "regress"
one case though: When hiding -> moving -> showing an actor, we'll now
include the old paint volume of the actor in the redraw clip on show (even
though redrawing that old region is not necessary, the actor was hidden
after all). This results in a bit of overpaint in this very specific case,
but for the sake of simplicity let's not care about that.
