Optimize filling of a path that is a single device-axis-aligned rectangle.

It turns out that this case is extremely common and worth avoiding
the overhead of the path iteration and tessellation code.

The optimization here works only for device-axis-aligned rectangles
It should be possible to generalize this to catch more cases, (such
as any convex quadrilateral with 4 or fewer points).

This fix results in a 1.4-1.8x speedup for the rectangles perf case:

image-rgb  rectangles-512  7.80 1.22% -> 4.35 1.62%: 1.79x speedup
▊
image-rgba rectangles-512  7.71 4.77% -> 4.37 0.30%: 1.77x speedup
▊
 xlib-rgba rectangles-512  8.78 5.02% -> 5.58 5.54%: 1.57x speedup
▋
 xlib-rgb  rectangles-512 11.87 2.71% -> 8.75 0.08%: 1.36x speedup
▍

Which conveniently overcomes the ~ 1.3x slowdown we had been seeing
for this case since 1.2. Now, compared to 1.2.6 we see only a speedup:

image-rgba rectangles-512  6.19 0.29% -> 4.37 0.30%: 1.42x speedup
▎
image-rgb  rectangles-512  6.12 1.68% -> 4.35 1.62%: 1.41x speedup
▎
 xlib-rgba rectangles-512  7.48 1.07% -> 5.58 5.54%: 1.34x speedup
▏
 xlib-rgb  rectangles-512 10.35 1.03% -> 8.75 0.08%: 1.18x speedup
