improved rendering of shadings in PrintPreview and PDF HandShake

Info

The rendering of shadings has been improved in PrintPreview
and PDF HandShake:
- The rendering of type 3 (radial) shadings could be very slow.
- Type 2 (axial) shadings where both startpoint and endpoint
lie outside the current bounding box could cause infinite loops.
- Using the same shading multiple times on a page could fail to
work. In that case only the first shading was displayed
correctly and all other shadings were not displayed.
- Shadings were rendered incorrectly if the shading dictionary
contained a Matrix entry. The problem occurred with Type 6
shadings in Adobe Illustrator EPS files.
Also fixed:
- Fixed implementation of the findcolorrendering operator.
PrintPreview jobs could fail with the error message
%%[ Error: undefinedresource; OffendingCommand: findresource ]%%
%%[ Operand stack: /ColorRendering ...
- Improved handling of PostScript Type 1 fonts with improper
use of the Flex feature.
NOTE: Before installing this update, the update installer itself
must be updated with one of the updates u0300-u0306.
