Allow clients to estimate how much extra memory streaming renderer will need to 
render a given map context

                 Key: GEOT-2514
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2514
             Project: GeoTools
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core render
    Affects Versions: 2.5.5
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 2.5.6


StreamingRenderer uses back buffers (separate rasters) to render multiple 
feature type styles against the same feature source in parallel, so that 
rendering order is respected while the feature source data is loaded just once.
The back buffer is 32bit since transparency is needed for merging back the 
results, meaning a map with many fts against the same layer will have a huge 
memory consuption. Usually that is bad SLD design, and there is a way to turn 
off optimized fts rendering, yet it might be useful for applications to 
determine how much memory is being used by the back buffers and  decide to 
eventually flip off optimized fts rendering.
