#1077: PdfPrinterGraphics2D does not override create

[mperktold]

Description of the new Feature/Bugfix

Override create() in PdfPrinterGraphics2D.
Introduces a copy constructor and a protected createChild method for this purpose. The createChild method only creates the new copy using the copy constructor, whereas create calls createChild and then adds the new copy to its kids before returning it.

This is just one of many possible designs. For example, a copyFrom (or copyTo) method could be used instead of a copy constructor, or we could delegate to the clone mechanism. Also, it would have been possible to add the kid directly in the copy constructor, so the createChild method would not be needed. However, I didn't like the idea of mutating the parameter of the copy constructor.

So in the end I chose this design because I think it this is the cleanest option, but of course it's up to you to change anything.
