Rendering improvements

For platforms that scale applications on HiDPI environment, the rendering is performed using native resolution. In addition to use of framebuffer object for rendering (default), it is also possible to render through direct OpenGL commands (requires Qt 5.8 or newer).

API extensions

• Add support for SVG images. See addImagePath for SVG rendering support
• Add property metersPerMapPixel to assist object rendering on map in HiDPI case. Use this property to convert map style pixel values to meters on the map.
• Add property mapToQtPixelRatio to assist object rendering on map in HiDPI case. Use this property to relate map and Qt logical pixels when wishing to render on a map some items that should have similar sizes to Qt elements. For example, adding icons to the map.
• Add property devicePixelRatio for HiDPI support (determined automatically on construction).
• Allow to switch over rendering through direct OpenGL commands

Introduced API extensions are targeting HiDPI case. It is recommended to use metersPerMapPixel and mapToQtPixelRatio when interacting with the map style and adding objects to the map. It is recommended to avoid using pixelRatio for those operations. See API documentation for details.
