We were creating the `<g>` element without specifying a namespace,
which caused the library to add `xmlns` attributes with the document's
default SVG namespace to elements that we appended underneath it.
(At least, that's what I think was happening.)
Specify the SVG namespace when creating it to avoid the mess and
reduce resulting file size.
