Take a better approach to scaling using normalized (log(x)) formula.

45 & #25

What does this Pull Request do?

Taking the approach described in detail in #25, creates a more attractive output for gexf graphs out of the box (more closely connected to the promise outlined in the README.md).

How should this be tested?

make clean all should pass all tests. ./graphpass --dir {enter filepath if file is not in /assets} --file {enter test graphml filename} -qg should put a gexf copy of the graphml in /OUT Test file in Gephi. Test file in SigmaJS / auk.

Additional Notes:

This approach may change the default output in SigmaJS, having impacts in auk. While the changes should be minor, we will need to look out for:
1 - wonky node sizing issues (similar to #25) 2 - the graph being overrun with text due to more equitable approach to nodesizes. 3 - that the aesthetics generally work for an auk output. 4 - that the scaling up/down feature in auk is a) still working okay and b) still useful.

Thanks in advance for your help with the Archives Unleashed Project!

OK chatted with @greebie and sounds like:

• node sizes would be better handled in sigma rather than GraphPass (and testing in this issue bears that out);
• file sizes better handled in AUK perhaps?

Will continue testing. I'd like to eye ball another 30-40 graphs.

This has been put into production.
