SVG is a textual XML format after all

Browse source 
When researching <https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/136350> "Make
CppunitTest_svgio CPPUNIT_TEST_NAME=Test::testCssClassRedefinition robust", I
was genuinely puzzled that git treated .svg files as binary data, until I
discovered 93e425cda7 ".gitattributes: treat .svg
and .jcs as binary".  I don't consider its rationale of "this is apparently the
only way to prevent results from endless base64 encoded lines (svg) [...] in
'git grep foo'" convincing enough, compared to the puzzlement and inconvenience
it causes when you do want to grep for the content of SVG files.

(I didn't experience similar issues with .jcs files, so leave that alone for
now.))
