Allow multiple paths in a PathItem

Instead of

    PathItem {
        item properties
        stroke/fill properties
        path: Path { ... }
    }

switch to

    PathItem {
        item properties
        VisualPath {
            stroke/fill settings
            Path { ... }
        }
        VisualPath {
            stroke/fill settings
            Path { ... }
        }
        ...
    }

Limiting PathItem to a single path is arguably too limited. Applications will
likely try to work this around by using multiple PathItems. While this is not
particularly bad for the generic (geometry node based) implementation, it is
a massive overkill for the rendernode-based ones. Therefore, avoid the hassle
and allow multiple paths with different stroke/fill parameters inside a single
PathItem.
