Description

Building on #208, now that we have our own graph data structure, we should consider integrating it with existing Julia packages for drawing graphs. I am aware of GraphRecipes.jl and GraphPlot.jl. AFAIK, they are independent of each other.

If we integrate with one or both of these packages, they should be optional dependencies through Requires.jl.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the APIs of GraphRecipes.jl and GraphPlot.jl to create integration recipes for Catlab.jl's graph data structure. Implement optional dependencies using Requires.jl.
