Provide layers (groups) in graphics output files where supported (SVG) (Trac #2052) #25

The SVG format provides support for grouping sets of drawing commands. (The XML tag.) This (I assume) turns into layers in inkscape, which are quite useful for editing graphics. So it would be very useful if PyFerret would produce SVG files that separate different parts of the drawing into layers (e.g., separate the axes from fills and shades, and separate different fills and shades such as "shade sst" from "go fland".)
