Direct2D based rendering

[objorke]

From oxyplot: oxyplot/oxyplot#124

Use Direct2D (SharpDX) to speed up rendering for WPF.

See see https://oxyplot.codeplex.com/workitem/10134

Code reference:

• D3DImage
• D3D11Image
• SharpDXElement

TODOs:

• fix zoom with mouse wheel not working
• remove PlotHeight, PlotWidth and IScrollInfo
• code cleanup and formatting
• implement renderer factory (#869)
• create nuget package
• add to appveyor build
• fallback to canvas rendering on remote desktop (see StackOverflow)

Another possible option for WPF would be to check if implementing a custom ImageSource (without Direct3D9) and only Direct2D would help:

Hello, I opened an issue related to this topic on the UWP repo (oxyplot/oxyplot-uwp#1), is there any implementation ready? I'm trying to get this feature ready on my weekends, so maybe I can take the issue if there is no one already working on it.
