Vacuum SVGs with Inkscape

[danth]

I ran all SVG files through the following command:

inkscape --vacuum-defs --export-overwrite **/*.svg

This cleans up the definitions of any gradients and so on which are no longer used in the image.

Unlike #37 and #38, this does not affect Inkscape metadata, guides or layers.

Hmmm...

Just a note, to anyone looking at the history here:

It looks like files with <tspan /> elements will converged toward two states. Pick the one with the lower id numbers.

[samueldr]

So, I believe this achieves a different goal from #37 and #38.

The TLDR gist of it is that it's like doing the two of those actions:

• File → Clean Up Document
• Save the document

So what happens doing this is that the document is cleaned (who knew) of unused things. And then the document is re-saved, which will re-adjust some positions by virtue of how inkscape works.

Though, I'll note that those positions are likely inconsistent only because of how old some of the files are.

Where are my manners?
