make default argument to Axes.get_xaxis_transform() not raise error

I made this a separate commit from the previous one because it may be
useful to see the errors that arise if get_xaxis_transform() or
get_yaxis_transform() are called with no arguments. This would allow
one to figure out which code paths are calling these methods and fix
them if needed rather than silently partially succeeding.

Arbitrary spine placement

Fix problem with polar grid lines by specifying the number of interpolation steps on a per-Path basis. This isn't really a public API -- it is intended for internal use only.

Make resolution of 1 be the default on a polar plot.
