Having spent the last dev cycle looking at how we could specialize the
compositors for various backends, we once again look for the
commonalities in order to reduce the duplication. In part this is
motivated by the idea that spans is a good interface for both the
existent GL backend and pixman, and so they deserve a dedicated
compositor. xcb/xlib target an identical rendering system and so they
should be using the same compositor, and it should be possible to run
that same compositor locally against pixman to generate reference tests.

P.S. This brings massive upheaval (read breakage) I've tried delaying in
order to fix as many things as possible but now this one patch does far,
far, far too much. Apologies in advance for breaking your favourite
backend, but trust me in that the end result will be much better. :)
Microsoft C Compiler complains about:
hash-table.c(44) : error C2466: cannot allocate an array of constant
size 0
Adding an unused element makes it happy.
A variant of many-strokes tries to answer the question of how much
overhead is there in stroking, i.e. if we fill an equivalent path to a
set of strokes, do we see an equivalence in performance?

An intersection variant to exercise the stroker with many, many lines. A
silly benchmark, but a popular one in the wild.

A benchmark to test the speed of hash tables when inserting and
removing a huge number of elements.
Although originally hash tables were assumed not to get many
deletions, in practice they are now being used as caches in multiple
places. This means that they often have a fixed number of live
elements and an element is evicted whenever a new element is inserted
(this happens explicitly for cairo_cache_t objects, but also, for
example, in scaled_font_map + holdovers). This access pattern is very
inefficient with the current implementation.
A benchmark to test how close we get to reducing paint+clip to an ordinary
fill, and to check correctness.

The performance tools build system for Win32 hasn't been maintained
for some time. The makefiles are now structured as in other
directories (Makefile.sources used by both Makefile.am and
Makefile.win32) and some additional code hides os-specific parts.
Benjamin just demonstrated this funky trick for generating pixel
outlines, and as no good deed should go unpunished, I've added his code
to the perf suite.

Provide a hook for the test to be able to compute the number of ops per
second. For instance, the glyphs test uses it to report the number of
kiloglyph per second Cairo is able to render.
