clutter/offscreen-effect: Clear offscreen when pre-paint fails

Some ClutterOffscreenEffect subclasses, such as ClutterBrightnessContrastEffect,
early-return FALSE in pre-paint before chaining up. It's an important optimization
that avoids creating or updating the offscreen framebuffer.

However, if an offscreen framebuffer already exists by the time pre-paint fails,
it will be used *without* repaint the actor over it. That causes an old picture
of the actor to be displayed.

Fix that by always clearing the offscreen framebuffer when pre-paint fails.
