AOER-PLOTTY-RS : ArmyOfEvilRobots pen-plotter art related tools and libraries

This library contains a variety of tools used to make pen-plotter based art. While it focuses on a combination of nannou and geo/geo_types for now, it will likely expand into other areas as I find the need for my own creations. Based (extremely roughly) on [shapely] for Python for the geographic functions, with a splash of [VSK].

CAUTION: This isn't even Alpha quality yet, and I am poking away at it on my days off. May spontaneously explode, might take your plotter with it.

Changelog

• 0.1.7. Another big change. Added the Context drawing library, which is HUGE, and contains way too much functionality to discuss here.
• 0.1.6. Various changes:
  • Add [geo_types::buffer::Buffer] trait to offset polygons
  • Add [geo_types::clip::LineClip] trait to Clip geometry with OTHER geometry.
  • [geo_types::svg::Arrangement] trait has been extended to better support arbitrary transformations.
  • [geo_types::svg::Arrangement] trait has also added a margin option to fit geometry on a page with predefined margins.
  • [geo_types::hatch::OutlineStroke] is a utility Trait which takes a LineString/MultiLineString and applies a stroke, returning a MultiLineString containing lines which outline the stroked line
  • [geo_types::hatch::OutlineFillStroke] is the same as [geo_types::hatch::OutlineStroke] except it also fills the stroke with the given HatchPattern. Great for turning drawings made of thick lines into nicely filled polygons.
  • Tons more examples which are oxidized versions of the [Generative Artistry tutorials]
• 0.1.5. Add SVG generation features.
• 0.1.4. Add the [geo_types::hatch::Hatch]ing submodule.
• 0.1.3. Breaking change to GCode POST again; use an enum to define the the input geometry so that we can add new geometry source types, like svg2polyline polylines, or even multilayer geo with tool changes.
• 0.1.2. Mostly documentation improvements. Made MIT license explicit.
• 0.1.1. Breaking change to the GCode POST function to use geo_types in order to be consistent with everywhere else in the library. Also changed the Turtle/TurtleTrait to just be mutable.
• 0.1.0. Initial commit
