Project links have changed.

Cast tick label to string prior to `replace` call

In the edge case that an actual integer, or other non-string, is passed as a label, it must be cast to String before `replace` can safely be called.

The recent changes to add retina support included a call to getContext
made before excanvas/flashcanvas had a chance to register their hooks;
fixed by moving that code up a few lines.

- Minor code cleanup and comments describing how we use pixel ratios.

Basic retina display support

Auto-generation of legend colors no longer results in only white and black above a certain number of series.

As the size of the variation increases, the resulting colors approach
white and black. To avoid this we now reset the variation when it gets
too large. This results in repeated colors, but that's much better than
a list full of whites and blacks.
