This basically was replace by cairo_clip_t managing boxes explicitly.
However, in this case what you want to convert over to is
_cairo_clip_get_polygon(). The intention is that we can reduce complex
clips very often to a single polygon and that even do geometric
intersection of clip paths with shapes (to avoid the fill overhead of
rendering multiple passes).
