    Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The main highlight of this version is a new mechanism for managing
    advanced (that is, user-defined) voltage, current, and flow elements.
    Additionally, a new set of shapes for ideal filter blocks has been added.

    - Add "automatic advanced voltages/currents/flows" (by Romano),
    marked as experimental for now.

    - Add an `ideal filter` option for plot-type filters,
    to draw ideal (square) filter shapes.
