Miscellaneous improvements

Embedding PNG images is now supported using the new \image markup command. This supplements the existing \epsfile command for EPS images.
\image works for both PNG and EPS images. For EPS images, the difference between using \image and \epsfile is that \image adds a white background by default, while \epsfile does not.
The new \qr-code markup command inserts a QR code of the specified size for the specified URL. This can be used to link to, e.g., the website of a composer or publisher, the LilyPond source files for the score, recordings, etc.
```
\markup \qr-code #10 "https://lilypond.org"
```
A figure-dash glyph (U+2012) and an en-dash glyph (U+2013) have been added to the Emmentaler fonts.
A figure space (U+2007), a thin space (U+2009), and a hair space (U+200A) have been added to the Emmentaler fonts.
The -dinclude-settings option can now be given multiple times to include several stylesheets.
In the LaTeX backend of lilypond-book, all inline images are now vertically shifted. The amount can be controlled globally with command-line option ‘--inline-vshift’ and locally with an argument to the snippet option inline.
