Implement CanvasTransform Interface
Current transformation implementation adds a <g> element and set <g>'s transform attribute with string concatenation of rotate, matrix, rotate, scale.
This pull request implements CanvasTransform interface using DOMMatrix and SVG's matrix(a b c d e f) transform function. Compared to adding string concatenation results to transform attribute of <g> element, it is more reliable to use the transformation matrix which DOMMatrix API calculates and applied directly to <path>, <rect> and other elements every time.
Example
ctx.fillStyle = "rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5)";
ctx.transform(2, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0);
ctx.rotate(Math.PI / 6);
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(0, 0);
ctx.lineTo(100, 100);
ctx.lineTo(100, 0);
ctx.fill();
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(0, 0);
ctx.lineTo(100, 100);
ctx.rotate(-Math.PI / 6);
ctx.lineTo(100, 0);
ctx.fill();

For lineTo, bezierCurveTo, quadraticCurveTo, each step’s point x and y were now calculated based on current transformation matrix.
New methods
This pull request also implemented 3 missing methods defined in CanvasTransform interface:
ctx.prototype.setTransform(a, b, c, d, e, f): SetTransform changes the current transformation matrix to the matrix given by the arguments as described below.ctx.prototype.getTransform(): Returns a copy of the current transformation matrix, as a newly created DOMMAtrix Object.ctx.prototype.resetTransform(): ResetTransform resets the current transformation matrix to the identity matrix.
