Pass rect and matrix by value in geometry functions.
Several things irk me about passing values as const pointers: * They can be NULL, which is not a valid value. * They require explicit temporary variables for storage. * They don't compose easily in a legible manner, requiring weird pointer passing semantics where the variable being assigned is hidden as an argument in the innermost function call. * We can't change the value through the pointer, requiring yet more local variables to hold copies of the input value. In the device interface where we pass a matrix to a function, we often find ourselves making a local copy of the matrix so we can concatenate other transforms to it. This copying is a lot of unnecessary busywork that I hope to eventually avoid by laying the groundwork with this commit. This is a rather large API change, so I apologize for the inconvenience, but I hope the end result and gain in legibility will be worth the pain.
