25e6231a88 path: Switch back to conics
Arcs were appealing, but they have a fatal flaw: we can't
split our arcs without changing the ellipse they trace.
That could be fixed by adding an extra parameter, but then
it is no longer any better than conics.

So switch back to conics, which have the advantage that they
are used elsewhere.

d33ed4f9ab path: Add elliptical arcs
Add a new curve type for elliptical arcs
and use it for rounded rectangles and circles.
We use the 'E' command to represent elliptical
arcs in serialized paths.

ded30049db path: Add gsk_path_get_start/end_point
These are useful to have, now that we are
relying more on GskPathPoint in our api.

c37c29422a Add gsk_path_get_stroke_bounds
This is a helper to compute the bounds for
stroke nodes. We keep it private for now.

1b5dfcba7e gsk: Add GskPath
This commit adds the basic infrastructure for paths.
The public APIs consists of GskPath, GskPathPoint and
GskPathBuilder.

GskPath is a data structure for paths that consists
of contours, which in turn might contain Bézier curves.
The Bezier data structure is inspired by Skia, with separate
arrays for points and operations. One advantage of this
arrangement is that start and end points are shared
between adjacent curves.

A GskPathPoint represents a point on a path, which can
be queried for various properties.

GskPathBuilder is an auxiliary builder object for paths.
