#skelefont update

I am done with the changes I wanted to add.

It is now possible to:
- choose between a true stroke font (.ufo and .svg outputs) to be used as Hershey text in Inkscape
- choosing all Fontforge stroke expansion parameters from the command line
- choose a custom range

Scale and vertical positioning have been fixed too.

If you have weird shapes, you'd need to play with the parameters. Often I figured that lowering the resolution works better (300 is a good quality/speed). Or you can change the stroke angle or the stroke width.

TODO: add the "keywords" arguments for super fine-tuning of stroke expansion.
