This optimizes binary size by skipping the scene if it has the only child.
though the reduced size is too trivial size (avg 0.4% as far as I checked our example svgs),
we can reduce the loading job & runtime memory as well.
Skip to save transform data by accumulating them through the scene tree,
and then applying the final transform to the path points.
Assume that each transform have 36 bytes, it could be increased linear to paints node count
if every paints has transform in the worst case.
Fudamentally, this save their memory and only remains to Bitmap Pictures,
also helps to reduce the loading/rendering workloads since
it doesn't need to perform any transform jobs after converting.
tvg file stores the version info of thorvg when it's generated,
in order to compare it with the runtime thorvg version when it's loaded.
For this, thorvg builds up the current version of symbol on the initilaization step,
that can be referred by the tvg loader.
This reduces tvg binary format size by converting PathCommand to more compact size.
This optimization increase +12% compress rate with our example:
195,668 => 174,071 (sum of all converted tvgs from svgs)

Pixel-based image picture doesn't work at size() method.
Obvisouly, we missed to implement it properly.
This patch corrects it.

tvg saver is a new module to export tvg files.
In this patch, it also contains the infrastructure of saver module
to expand other types of savers such as png, jpg, etc.
To save the tvg file from a paint, you can use the Saver feature, for example:
auto saver = tvg::Saver::gen();
saver->save(paint, "sample.tvg");
saver->sync();
Later, you can read the "sample.tvg" using Picture.
auto picture = tvg::Picture::gen();
picture->load("sample.tvg");
...
The behavior of the saver will work on sync/async based on the threading setting of the initializer.
Thus if you wish to have a benefit of it, you must call sync() after the save() in the proper delayed time.
Otherwise, you can call sync() immediately.
Note that, the asynchronous tasking is depent on the saver module implementation.
Also, you need to enable tvg saver/loader modules from meson option. (yet this feature is under the beta)
