Write a GVUses.dot file that can be used for the `dot` program from GraphViz to generate a unit dependency graph

Add a link to a GVUses.<format> file generated by the `dot` program where <format> is any extension that `dot` can generate (e.g. jpg). (currently only for HTML output)
Add a link to a GVClasses.<format> file generated by the `dot` program where <format> is any extension that `dot` can generate (e.g. jpg). (currently only for HTML output)
Abbreviation file, format is "[name] value", value is trimmed, lines that do not start with '[' (or whitespace before that) are ignored
Enable spell-checking by Aspell, specify language by the --language option
