Establishes a new clip region by intersecting the current clip
region with the current path as it would be filled by cairo_fill()
and according to the current fill rule (see cairo_set_fill_rule()).
After cairo_clip(), the current path will be cleared from the cairo
context.
The current clip region affects all drawing operations by
effectively masking out any changes to the surface that are outside
the current clip region.
Calling cairo_clip() can only make the clip region smaller, never
larger. But the current clip is part of the graphics state, so a
temporary restriction of the clip region can be achieved by
calling cairo_clip() within a cairo_save()/cairo_restore()
pair. The only other means of increasing the size of the clip
region is cairo_reset_clip().
