Emily Eisenberg f63af87f17 Add looots of comments
Summary:
Add comments everywhere! Also fix some small bugs like using Style.id
instead of Style.size, and rename some variables to be more descriptive.

Fixes #22

Test Plan:
 - Make sure the huxley screenshots didn't change
 - Make sure the tests still pass

/**
* Makes a vertical list by stacking elements and kerns on top of each other.
* Allows for many different ways of specifying the positioning method.
*
* Arguments:
* - children: A list of child or kern nodes to be stacked on top of each other
* (i.e. the first element will be at the bottom, and the last at
* the top). Element nodes are specified as
* {type: "elem", elem: node}
* while kern nodes are specified as
* {type: "kern", size: size}
* - positionType: The method by which the vlist should be positioned. Valid
* values are:
* - "individualShift": The children list only contains elem
* nodes, and each node contains an extra
* "shift" value of how much it should be
* shifted (note that shifting is always
* moving downwards). positionData is
* ignored.
* - "top": The positionData specifies the topmost point of
* the vlist (note this is expected to be a height,
* so positive values move up)
* - "bottom": The positionData specifies the bottommost point
* of the vlist (note this is expected to be a
* depth, so positive values move down
* - "shift": The vlist will be positioned such that its
* baseline is positionData away from the baseline
* of the first child. Positive values move
* downwards.
* - "firstBaseline": The vlist will be positioned such that
* its baseline is aligned with the
* baseline of the first child.
* positionData is ignored. (this is
* equivalent to "shift" with
* positionData=0)
* - positionData: Data used in different ways depending on positionType
* - options: An Options object
*
