var nsvg = linearize(svg, opts)

Create a new svg, nsvg from an existing svg element.

Any curved paths in svg will be converted to line segment paths.

Optionally specify:

• opts.tolerance - tolerance to feed into simplify-geometry, higher values mean fewer points. Default: 3.
• opts.segments - number of points to sample each path. Default: 100.
