Another functional SVGImage patch

Woh.  This one has some serious hacks in it.  No, we could never land this. 
But, it does demonstrate some architectural issues that will need to be
considered if we're ever going to get SVGImage to work for real.  SVGImage
needs to be passed a Page object.  SVGImages are created from a CachedImage,
which although it is passed a docLoader in its constructor, does not hold onto
that pointer, and thus has no way to tell SVGImage what the current page is. 
I'm not even sure if we would want SVGImages to use the current page.  Using
their own custom page object (like this patch does) is really really really
ugly, and likely won't work long-term.

At least hyatt and othermaciej should take a peak at this patch.
