.ai save: the editing copy keeps brushes and brushed paths

Browse Source 
The editing copy of a PDF-compatible .ai now holds the Brushes panel's
Calligraphic, Scatter and Art brushes in the panel's order, with the art
of Scatter and Art brushes. A path or compound path with a Calligraphic
brush, or with an Art brush in Tints whose art bends along the path,
keeps the brush on its stroke. Other brushed strokes are still written
as their brush's art.

The writer reads each brush back with the reader's code before writing
it. Brushes that would not come back with their settings, brushes past
the reader's limits and every brush on a large canvas are left out with
a warning. A brush that has the name of an earlier brush that was left
out is written, and no path is written with it on its stroke.

An object linked to a graphic style that is left out at the object
limit now also raises the warning about links left out.

Brushes and their options:
