Improve svgo.yml

- Remove plugins that are already the default in svgo, and link to docs
- Move the `removeDimensions` plugin to be next to `removeViewBox`
- Add configuration to the `convertPathData` and `mergePaths` plugins
  to avoid an issue with over-aggressive optimization for arcto commands
  introduced in svgo v1.3.0.

Also:

- Add missing `--config` option to the svgo command in README
- Remove over-aggressive optimization from the cv.svg flag
