The improvement allows immediate cancellation of raster rendering
in progress. Until now, even when map rendering got cancelled
(e.g. by zooming of panning canvas), the GUI got blocked while waiting
for raster layers to finish their rendering (only vector layers have
had support for cancellation). This should allow for much smoother
user experience while browsing maps including rasters.
The cancellation is supported currently by WMS/WMTS and WCS providers.
GDAL provider may also get support thanks to improvements in GDAL 2.

Now all classes and members are either exposed to bindings or marked
as "not available in Python bindings" in the docs.
Drop test thresholds to 0. Now it should be much easier to determine
what missing members have been added which are causing test
failures.
