No game rendering or paint rendering

[GoogleCodeExporter]

To save CPU, I modified CanvasWrapper.java so that it returns essentially a 
"blank" graphics object upon RuneScape calling getGraphics();

Oh, yeah. To use it:
renderPaint(true) to turn on painting, but leave the game in its current state
renderPaint(false) to turn off painting, but leave the game in its current state
renderGame(true) to turn on game rendering, but leave the paint in its current 
state
renderGame(false) to turn off game rendering, but leave the paint in its 
current state

Something like this can be usefully if programmed properly.
I'll look into the code and further tell you what i think and if it is really 
something we could use.

There was the option to have a Graphics blank class, rather than a Graphics2D 
blank class. Runescape asks for the Graphics, Runedev asks for the Graphics2D. 
I decided against it, as I decided having the two singletons would probably 
chew up more heap space than time saved.
