dotCooCoo 8fa551e173 Selection: clicks in a clip group follow the region its clipping path's effects give it
The canvas clips a clip group by its clipping path with the path's live
geometry effects applied, but clicks, hovers and marquees still tested
the plain clipping path. A click where a Transform effect had moved the
clip selected nothing, and a click on the clipping path's own place
selected art that was not drawn there.

- The engine registers the effect-shaped region with the doc crate
  (`hit::set_clip_region`), as it does for image paint and live art. It
  gives a region only when the clipping path holds a visible geometry
  effect; otherwise clicks keep the plain shapes, and type keeps
  counting by its frame.
- Clicks, `objects_at`, the hidden art of a selected object, the Unlock
  submenu's list and marquees inside a clip group or a clipping layer
  use that region. Outline view and layers with Preview off draw no
  effects and keep the plain shapes; the Selection, Direct Selection
  and Enclosing Lasso marquees pass the view's outline state
  (`hit::marquee_in_view`). Each container around a selected object
  tests its clipping path in the outline state a click has there.
- A marquee touches the clipping path itself by its own geometry, as a
  click on its outline finds it, and also on the edge of the region, so
  a marquee around a clipping path that an effect moved into large art
  still selects it. `hit::marquee_in` keeps the plain shapes for the
  Color Theme Picker, which clips by them.
- The region is kept per thread until the clipping path or the live
  inputs change. A clip group's reach takes in the region's box, so
  culling does not skip art the region moved past the plain clipping
  path. Up to 4096 boxes are kept; when they are full, a new box
  replaces only as many others as it needs room for.
