Make Widget.useblit robust against underlying canvas changes #30503

Description

@anntzer

As noted in #30490 (comment) (and #30485, the original issue, also #25075), Widget.canvas, which is typically initialized as self.useblit = useblit and canvas.supports_blit, is fragile against changes in the underlying canvas (the most common case in practice being a temporarily switch from a canvas that supports blitting to one that doesn't, when saving to vector output).
@tacaswell wrote some code to handle that in #25085, but some further fixes were necessary in #30490 which uses a different approach; a unified way of handling the issue would be nice to have.
