Image background svg support

Image background support was added in 2.0.0-beta.3 but had no svg function for it. Now it was added by using the pattern feature in svg.

A new triangle shape

The triangle shape was added in 2.0.0-beta.3 too but only to be used in the shape detection in the pen tool. Now you can find the triangle shape in the shape tool and in the add dialog.

Templates improvements

The templates dialog was redesigned and now supports overriding the tools for selected templates. Additionally if you add a new template you can now give it a name.

New android open with intents

You can now open zip, pdf and images with Butterfly on android by opening the file with Butterfly. Previously you can only open .bfly files.
