lxml to svg

Convert Layout XML produced by Grobid's fork of pdf2xml or pdftoxml to SVG.

Because SVG doesn't support multiple pages yet, separate files will be created.

For example to convert a PDF to LXML you may run:

pdftoxml test.pdf test.lxml

Convert the file to SVG:

python -m sciencebeam_lab.lxml_to_svg --lxml-path test.lxml

That will create test-page1.svg, test-page2.svg, etc.
