tdf#127529 vertical text not drawn in slideshow canvas

because the canvas text drawing impl falls back to using an OutputDevice view
of the canvas to use the vcl text drawing apis to achieve vertical text

To get an OutputDevice view of the canvas there is a specific VirtualDevice
ctor available to create a VirtualDevice that, unlike the normal case, doesn't
have its own specific backing buffer, but instead draws to the underlying target
provided via the SystemGraphicsData arg

The svp/gtk impl missed that understanding and provided an ordinary
VirtualDevice with its own backing buffer, not a VirtualDevice that would draw
to the expected target surface of the canvas. So the vertical text was drawn to
a different surface than the intended one, and was just discarded.

The cairo use in the canvas long precedes the use of cairo in vcl itself.

Seeing as text is now rendered with cairo in all cases where the canvas uses
cairo its probably now pointless for canvas to have its own text rendering
path.
