An improved version of the gears plugin

It adds holes to the gear (central hole for the shaft and some radial holes to make gear lighter). - More accurate tooth profile. In earlier versions the involute curve was approximated by only three points; now by 15 (can be modified in the source code) - Center cross (easy for aligning); off by default, can be turned on - Pitch circle (easy for meshing; circles should touch for meshing gears); off by defalut can be turned on - Info: in the SVG there is now an extra field telling a little about the gear (easy if you want to make a meshing gear but you forgot the settings used)
