There is a "misconception" in qt5 graphics about how to draw transparent stuff causing transparent items on the map to not correctly work. This PR changes qt5 graphics to force-clear overlays on starting to draw them instead of force clearing the shape of a transparent item. While this imposes the limitation that the content of an overlay cannot be drawn in multiple runs, it allows to draw transparent stuff on the map.
Luckily I don't know of any overlay item yet that is not drawn in one run. So this seems to work OK.
