0.2 codebase now in stable branch

[Gregory Brown]

Hi folks,

The code which will become Prawn 0.2 has been merged into the stable
branch at github.com/sandal/prawn

I want to investigate some issues before doing a release (especially
with font height calculations), but the code there fixes 0.1 bugs,
introducing loads new features, and probably introduces some new bugs
too.

Keep in mind that 0.2 is not a stable release but a 'stabilization'
release. I will be using it to tighten up the core and speed things
up through subsequent releases.

Right now there are some icky performance bottle necks creeping in,
that I want to fix.

I'll be doing point releases from time to time (0.2.0, 0.2.1, 0.2.2,
etc), but you can expect the API to be fairly stable across 0.2.x so
if you want to pull down the code from git and start helping test,
please do that.

be sure to run the following to pull in the new pdf-inspector code for
the tests:
git submodule init
git submodule update

Release notes and examples of new features will come with the 0.2
release, due out later this week. For the next couple days, I need to
spend time preparing for my training session with JEG2 at Lone Star
RubyConf.
