SVG-ISSUE-2396 (rendering vs interaction area): Distinguish between the rendering area of an element and its interaction area [SVG 2]

Raised by: Doug Schepers
On product: SVG 2

The rendering area of SVG is separate from its interaction area, and we should refer to them distinctly.  For example:

* elements with 'pointer-events: boundingbox' would typically have a larger rectangular interaction area than rendering area, while 'pointer-events: stroke' would have a smaller defined interaction area

* elements which have 'visibility:none' have no rendering area, but do have an interaction area
