OpenLayers. Renderer. Elements

This is another virtual class in that it should never be instantiated by itself as a Renderer.  It exists because there is tons of shared functionality between different vector libraries which use nodes/elements as a base for rendering vectors.

The highlevel bits of code that are implemented here are the adding and removing of geometries, which is essentially the same for any element-based renderer.  The details of creating each node and drawing the paths are of course different, but the machinery is the same.
