Add verbosity levels: - terse = omit elements and attributes which are default - default = create elements if they are not `None` - verbose = always create the elements...

A [Polygon](https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlreference#polygon) is expressed in KML as: ``` 0 0 clampToGround ... ... ``` Normalize `fastkml.geometry.Polygon` to take parameters shell and holes: ``` class Polygon(_Geometry): def __init__( self, *, ns:...

Test Documentation with doctest - Usage guide is broken for version 1.x

The examples in the [Usage guide](https://fastkml.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage_guide.html) are no longer working with version 1.0 -> #100 This is because the syntax is still python 2 and that the API has changed...

currently only the `kml` namespace is populated from the information found in the file, the `gx` and `atom` namespaces as well as arbitrary other namespace should also be populated

Add a method to load a KML document from a file and from string (e.g. `load` and `loads`) and to save as a file (e.g `dump`)

Improve the documentation with Examples
