David Van Horn 0dfcf634ed Change latex render units from px (pdflatex specific) to bp (tex).
The px unit is a pdflatex specific adjustable unit that is 1 bp (big
point = 1/72in) by default.  This commit changes the latex renderer to
use bp which is a standard TeX unit equivalent to the default px
value.  This change allows .tex files generated by scribble to work
with other latex engines such as xelatex.

Here is a small test of using scribble and xelatex:

$ cat try.scrbl
@(require scriblib/figure redex/reduction-semantics redex/pict)
@(define-language L)
@(render-term L (term 1))

$ scribble --latex try.scrbl ; xelatex try
