bflatastic 8e7b9ba436 Image Trace: stroked centre lines lie in the middle of their ink and are as wide as it
Create: Strokes (the Outline preset, or the option) traced lines along the pixel skeleton: right to a pixel,
with a width counted in pixels, and fitted by a separate, older fitter.

- Each skeleton point is moved to the middle of the line's ink, read from the image across the line: every
  pixel counts as much ink as its colour is the line's rather than the paper's, the ink's centroid is the
  middle and its sum the width (an anti-aliased or blurred line says both to a fraction of a pixel).
- The stroke width is the median of those widths, no longer a whole number of pixels.
- Each end goes where the ink ends, less the half width a round cap adds.
- Centre lines are fitted as outlines are: a straight line is two anchors, corners stay corners, Snap Curves To
  Lines levels them. The old Douglas-Peucker and simplify fitter, and the crate's pathops dependency, go.

Outline on the thin-line inputs, all sizes and variants (docs/image-trace-quality.md), before -> after:
- painted outline 0.310 -> 0.055 px off on average; 81 -> 14 anchors for five lines
- centre line 0.295 -> 0.052 px from the true centre line; stroke width 0.13 -> 0.02 px off; 18.4 -> 2.7
  anchors a stroke (blurred, noisy and scanned lines: 2.0 each; aliased: 4.6)
- largest distance 1.84 -> 2.94 px: the square ends of a 10 px line under a round cap
Presets without Create: Strokes are unchanged.
