Description

Under QGIS master, adding (or pasting) a multi-part feature into a shapefile dataset fails. The feature is added, but the dataset can't be saved.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create a new shapefile, add it to an empty QGIS project
  2. Switch the edit mode to on, and add a multi-part feature
  3. Try to save the dataset, you'll be thrown the following error: "could not commit change to your layer {name}"

This proposed PR, https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/4782, fixes the above-mentioned regression.

closing this because PR has been merged and there was also a backport for 2.18. I anyway still see this problem at least with one specific point dataset and on Windows/master. See #16870-8
