Use NetworkLayout.jl for the algorithms #13

Modifying the package to use NetworkLayout.jl so that redundant copied code from GraphLayout can be eliminated.

Hi Abhijith, awesome work. Will solving this issue also make available layered graph drawing with the Buchheim Tree Drawing of NetworkLayout.jl?

hpoit commented 7 years ago

I'm sorry, trees are a special case of DAGs, so no, it is not general enough. I'm thinking of adding layered graph drawing to your package, to be used in BayesNets.jl.

Yeah, Buchheim can be made available here, but for that to work, a cycle removal function needs to be added as mentioned here. Adding new algorithms here is not a great idea since NetworkLayout was created to separate layouting code from visualizing code.
