/**
 * @fileoverview Based on PlotKit, but modified to meet the needs of dygraphs.
 * In particular, support for:
 * - grid overlays
 * - error bars
 * - dygraphs attribute system
 *
 * High level overview of classes:
 *
 * - DygraphLayout
 *     This contains all the data to be charted.
 *     It uses data coordinates, but also records the chart range (in data
 *     coordinates) and hence is able to calculate percentage positions ('In
 *     this view, Point A lies 25% down the x-axis.')
 *     Two things that it does not do are:
 *     1. Record pixel coordinates for anything.
 *     2. (oddly) determine anything about the layout of chart elements.
 *     The naming is a vestige of Dygraph's original PlotKit roots.
 *
 * - DygraphCanvasRenderer
 *     This class determines the charting area (in pixel coordinates), maps the
 *     percentage coordinates in the DygraphLayout to pixels and draws them.
 *     It's also responsible for creating chart DOM elements, i.e. annotations,
 *     tick mark labels, the title and the x/y-axis labels.
