Subject: [PATCH] Save As .ai: name dots and corner-fitted dashes in the
 editing data's stroke warning

Dotted strokes (zero-length dashes with round or projecting caps) and dashes
fitted to corners are written as filled outlines in the editing data for
other apps. The warning that lists the strokes written that way now names
them.
