Install for CLI on RPI

[MadTooler]

I haven't found any documentation on the install, but here is what I was able to make work.

Install rust and cargo with this script per https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html
curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh

Clone the svg2gcode github repo
sudo git clone https://github.com/sameer/svg2gcode.git

I had to set permissions of directories or else I was getting a Permission denied (os error 13):
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /home/pi/svg2gcode/

(Edit: After a new install on another pi, looks like chown of .cargo is not necessary ...)

and again here, but I am not sure this one was needed:
sudo chown -R $(whoami) /home/pi/.cargo/

Note, on the first run of the cargo svg2gcode, it will take a long time as it builds the project. Afterwards, it is quick.

Example CLI call if running from the root directory with example of an svg file in the desktop with an output to the desktop:

cargo  run --manifest-path svg2gcode/Cargo.toml  --release -- /home/pi/Desktop/drawing.svg --off 'M5' --on 'M4' -o /home/pi/out.gcode

Hi MadTooler, This installation process is pretty standard if you are familiar with Rust. It is a little confusing if you aren't so I created the web version. I'll add some info to the readme. There are some pre-built binaries but not for aarch64 yet. https://github.com/sameer/svg2gcode/releases/tag/v0.0.6
