* [FEATURE] Selective masking
Advanced rendering feature that allows the definition of 'masks' areas around labels or with a new typ of symbol layer. These masks will "un-draw" symbol layers of other layers underneath.
It modifies the rendering process by adding an optional second pass.
rendering operations on a specific feature are performed
This allows symbol layer subclasses to know when a set of rendering
operations all relate to a single feature, e.g. when a number
of polygons are rendered which all belong to the same multi-polygon
geometry attached to a single feature.
Without these hooks, symbol layer subclasses have no stable method
of knowing that these parts all relate to a single feature, or
have no means of knowing when the final part of that feature has
been rendered.
This commit adds a new fill symbol layer type "Random marker fill". It
allows polygon features to be rendered using a marker symbol placed
at random locations within the polygon boundary.
Options include:
- number of marker symbols to render for the polygon
- whether markers rendered near the edges of polygons should be clipped
to the polygon boundary or not
- an optional random number seed, to give consistent placement
of markers whenever maps are refreshed (also allows random placement
to play nice with QGIS server and tile-based rendering)

Whilst usually this is bad practice (reusing an existing expression context),
and instead you should make a new context for every batch of expression evaluations,
we can't do this in the style model and we end up potentially creating
thousands of new contexts. So instead, we use a single one, which is
safe because the actual expression context used here is a very
basic one...
or size properties
Previously only string values of the format 'x,y' would be permitted. But
I've seen MANY bug reports and questions about this, so also allow
arrays of doubles as a valid result. E.g. "array(3,5)". In any case, it's
just nicer.

Adds:
- __len__ : returns number of symbol layers in symbol
- [ ] getter: returns a specific symbol layer, also allows negative indices to retrieve from end of symbol
- del [ ]: removes a specific symbol layer, also allows negative indices
- raise IndexError when an invalid symbol layer is requested
- allow iteration over symbol layers using
for layer in symbol:
print(layer.color())
Adds a new visitor pattern API for creation of visitors which visit
all the style entities (symbols, color ramps, text formats, and
label styles) associated with different objects. Can be used on a
renderer, map layer, or project wide level.
E.g. on a project wide level, allows collection of ALL the style
symbols/color ramps/text settings inside a project, including those
in layouts or annotations!
Just like the earlier change which allows for text formats to
be managed in style manager, this change allows for layer-wide
label settings to be stored and managed in styles.
So while a text format includes just the font settings and other
appearance related settings, Label Settings also includes layer-type
specific settings such as label placement, priority, rendering
settings.
