Description

Font options should not be written as shorthand as this is not officially supported in SVG and is invalid in any graphic editing software: https://github.com/lindell/JsBarcode/blob/19cdeea9a03c3cd863a74d074ed8f7d66825b718/src/renderers/svg.js#L93

Happy to do a pull request as it's bugging me I cannot use it as intended 😇

Research direction

Start in src/renderers/svg.js at line 93 and inspect how the font options are serialized into SVG. Check the generated SVG against the issue's compatibility concern, then verify that font options are emitted without shorthand and remain usable in graphic editing software.
