[QGIS-Developer] Remove all rubberbands from the canvas

[Tim Sutton]

Hi Paul

AFAIK you need to keep track of all the rubber bands you add and then reset
them when you want to clean them up. See some example code here:

https://github.com/inasafe/inasafe/blob/develop/safe/gui/tools/rectangle_map_tool.py#L56

Regards

Tim
