user-modifiable scalebar fill and color #12

Dear Oswaldo,

just found out about your package. It's very useful, but it could use some more flexibility in my opinion. Have you thought about letting the user modify the scalebar border and fill colors? This would make it more adequate for use on top of e.g. darker satellite images obtained through ggmap (I did run into this you see ...). If you think it is a good idea, I'd be happy to contribute.

Kind regards, Bart

PS The workaround I use now is adding a transparent white rectangle below the scalebar.
