Documentation hint for eliminating canvas margin

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I found that occasionally, I want a graph to go to the absolute edge of the 
container element.  
Nothing in the documentation clearly stated how to do it (unless I missed it?).

After digging in the code, I discovered that the plotOffset is responsible for 
this.  It's value is 
calculated in the function setGridSpacing().

It would be nice somewhere in the documentation (perhaps the Grid section?) if 
it was stated that, 
to eliminate all whitespace around the graph, you'd need to set the following 
options to zero:

options.grid.borderWidth
series.points.radius
series.points.lineWidth

I believe this is the only way to do this. However in case you want to have one 
of
those options set to a non-zero value, is there anyway we can do this writing a 
plugin?

Regarding plugin, I don't think so right now. If you are interested in looking 
into it, I'm happy to review a patch. You risk cutting off some stuff in the 
graph though. If one of you could explain why you want to do it, I'd be 
interested in hearing it.

There's a suggestion on a simple extension in issue 188.
