This function can be used to check if drawing on wxClientDC actually
works. This has to be a run-time, rather than compile-time, check
because in wxGTK3 this depends on the backend being used: wxClientDC
only doesn't work with Wayland, but does work with X11 (and, less
importantly, Win32) backend(s).
Currently the wxWindow parameter of this function is not used but it
could be useful in the future and it will be simpler to allow not
specifying it (by defaulting it to nullptr) than to add it later, so it
seems better to have it.
The original drawing mechanism was generating lots of QWarning messages
when running samples (e.g. htlbox, caret, etc.) and in some cases was
not actually completely drawing every element of the sample. The issue
was that the QPicture was being shared incorrectly between wxWindow and
wxClientDC and attempts to start painting, update, etc. were generating
console warnings.

Commit history was lost in the git to svn merge for trunk, so this reflect work done in two GSOC projects and/or by several authors.
Lines changed by each user was the main metric used to ack major contributions.

This merges in the latest sources from GSoC 2014 wxQt project with just a few
minor corrections, mostly undoing wrong changes to common files in that branch
(results of a previous bad merge?) and getting rid of whitespace-only changes.
Also remove debug logging from wxGrid.
