 Make lwgeom_subdivide use lwgeom_intersection for clipping

 lwgeom_clip_by_rect describes itself as clipping in a "fast but possibly
 dirty way." This is not a good fit for lwgeom_subdivide, a primary use of
 which is the optimization of point-in-polygon processes. That application
 requires that the area covered by the subdivided geometry be the same as
 the area covered by the original geometry, which in turn requires that a
 robust intersection routine be used.
