Compatibility with siunitx version 2

[Zaunmich]

When trying to use inkscapeCircuitSymbols, I run into the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Bio\AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\textext\base.py", line 538, in tex_to_pdf
    exec_command([tex_command, self.tmp('tex')] + self.LATEX_OPTIONS)
  File "C:\Users\Bio\AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\textext\utility.py", line 252, in exec_command
    raise TexTextCommandFailed(message="Command %s failed (code %d)" % (' '.join(cmd), p.returncode),
textext.errors.TexTextCommandFailed: Command C:\Users\Bio\AppData\Local\Programs\MiKTeX\miktex\bin\x64\pdflatex.exe tmp.tex -interaction=nonstopmode -halt-on-error failed (code 1)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    raise TexTextConversionError(parsed_log, error.return_code, error.stdout, error.stderr)
textext.errors.TexTextConversionError: ! Package keyvalue Error: Unknown option 'per' for package siunitx.

The error suggests that a option "per" for the siunitx Tex-Package is provided, which was used in the version 1 of siunitx. See https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/327859/package-siunitx-doesnt-work-with-option

A quick and easy fix is to use version 2 syntax in the preamble definition: in C:\Users\ yourUserName \AppData\Roaming\inkscape\extensions\circuitSymbols\circuitSymbolsPreamble.tex

\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm,amsbsy,amsfonts,amssymb}
\usepackage[per-mode=symbol]{siunitx} % change this line here.
\usepackage{steinmetz}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
%\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\newcommand{\micro}{\ensuremath{\mu}}
\newcommand{\phasorName}[1]{ \ensuremath{ \boldsymbol{\hat #1} } }
\newcommand{\impedance}[1]{ \ensuremath{ \boldsymbol{#1} } }

\newcommand{\complexPolDeg}[2]{\ensuremath{#1\phase{#2\degree}}}

Are there any plans to add siunitx version 2 compatibility?

Thanks for the message. Yes I am aware of the changes between siunitx 1 and 2.

I updated the repository
