Carl Worth accdbd2367 UXA: Rasterize trapezoids to system memory, not a pixmap
Since we're only doing software rasterization right now, anyway, it
makes more sense to just rasterize to system memory and then upload
to a pixmap once complete. This avoids expensive read-modify-write
cycles.

This results in a 2.4x speedup for a real-world test case that's
heavy on trapezoids, which is swfdec running on the following file:

Many thanks to Chris Wilson for his cairo-traces repository and
cairo-perf-trace tool which makes it so easy to measure things
like this.
