The ObjectBoundingMode coordinate mode of QGradient allows specifying
the gradient coordinates relative to the object being painted. But if
the gradient brush also has a transformation, that transformation is
applied in the logical, not object, coordinate space. That behavior is
counterintuitive. However, changing it now would break existing
code. Instead, we introduce a new coordinate mode enum with the
expected behavior, and document the old one as deprecated.
This prepares to fix the bugs below in qtsvg, by making
it possible to specify the same behavior in Qt as SVG has.
