[elk-dev] The new ElkGraph

Greeting, fellow ELK developers!

The new ELkGraph is pretty much done and everything is migrated (see the
cds/realelkgraph branch). "Everything is migrated" in this context means
"everything compiles". I do expect the results to be full of strange
coordinate conversion bugs, which is why I have not merged the branch
onto master yet.

Before we can track down the bugs, we need something to track them down
with. This is why my attention will now shift to KIELER Pragmatics: once
KLighD works with the new graph, we can start finding and fixing bugs. I
expect KLighD to work with the new ELK Graph by the end of the week, so
I guess we can start fixing bugs starting next week.

Once everything has settled down a bit, there are two things left to be
done:

1. Migrate some of the basic math data structures to the elk.graph plug-in.

2. Investigate if we can get rid of persistent entries. I expect that we
need to give the graph plug-in access to some sort of a mechanism for
properly deserialising layout options, something that we currently do in
the core ELK plug-in.

Comments and suggestions welcome!

Cheers,
 Christoph Daniel
