Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new project
2. Create a new composer sheet, and add a rectangle item to it
3. Edit the rectangle item's symbology via the 'Change...' button
4. Add a centroid fill style layer, and increase the size of the simple marker to 15, then apply
5. Back onto the composer sheet, zoom in onto the centroid marker so that the composer sheet zoom is >100%, the pixels will be noticeable
If you define the size of the simple marker through a data-defined expression, the rendering doesn't rasterize the marker and even when you zoom to extreme values, the marker looks sharp. See attached screenshot (marker 1 and 3 are using data-defined size, marker 2 using the user interface's size spinbox)
It's a composer rendering specific issue as a centroid simple marker applied to a polygon on a map will (properly) export to vector.

- File composer_shapes_rasterization.svg added
I'm attaching an exported SVG that shows centroid simple markers properly exported as vector alongside the same symbology rasterized upon export when applied to a composer shape.
