This introduces a combined brush/dash pattern which can be used to
perform faster dashed straight-line drawing. The dash pattern is
prerendered to a tiled bitmap brush, resulting in a significant speedup
for lines with many elements.
As the result of non-rectilinear lines may lose quality compared to the
native dashed renderer, the slow/high quality codepath can be activated
by setting the QPainter::HighQualityAntialiasing render hint.
