Bug Description
Images with certain clipping and masking are not saving correctly to PDF.
Steps to reproduce the error:
1) Open attached .svg file, which contains a raster image with some clipping and masking.
(Original source: Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 for Windows, then exported to PDF, then opened with Inkscape.)
2) File -> Save A Copy -> PDF
3) Open the created PDF using a PDF viewer such as Adobe Reader. There will either be a black box where the transparent areas should be (0.91 r13725 Windows x64), or the entire image will be blurry (0.91 r14762 Windows x64), depending on which version of Inkscape you are using to do the saving.
