[Qgis-developer] Suppress rendering of small features

[Vincent Mora]

Hi,

I did something somewhat similar to solve #4819 in Jully ("Identify Features"
tool is slow with complex/big features) and Matthias asked me to do the
same thing for the rubber-band.

In polygon contours, points that are less than a pixel apart from the
previous point are not drawn.

That improved (dramatically) the rendering speed.
