Raster tiles flash when zooming

[chrisvoll]

mapbox-gl-js version: v0.22.0 and later

Steps to Trigger Behavior

1. Load a map with raster tiles, such as this jsbin copied from the mapbox examples
2. Zoom in several zoom levels
3. Slowly zoom back out to observe the flashing

The behavior is visible in this video

I've seen this in the latest versions of Chrome, Safari and Firefox on OS X 10.12.2 with a dedicated GPU.

Expected Behavior

The transition when zooming should be fluid with new tiles fading in over old ones. In v0.21.0, the zooming is much smoother, as seen in this jsbin

Actual Behavior

New tiles are fading in from white, instead of from 0 opacity.

Thanks guys! Let me know if there's any other information I can provide.

Thanks @andrewharvey. This is indeed a dupe of #2467.
