Description
Currently we are able to provide render size via `--width` and `--height` options but there is no way to produce a padded png from a non-padded svg.
My use case revolves around generating a bunch of website favicons from an svg file.
At first I tried to create another padded svg file which references the original file with `` to avoid duplication but turns out [external file references are not supported yet](https://github.com/RazrFalcon/resvg/issues/6).
Then I tried to see if it's possible to somehow specify render and final image sizes separately but looks like [it's also not possible currently](https://github.com/RazrFalcon/resvg/issues/779).
**Feature Request**
Introduce `--render-width` and `--render-height` to specify what size the svg will be rendered. If the render size is smaller then image size, it is centered. If the render size is bigger, it is centered but also cropped.
We can think about introducing a `--scale-mode=(scale,fill,stretch,none)` option later on if necessary.

Research direction
Start by tracing the CLI handling for the existing --width and --height options through the SVG rendering path. Define how separate render and canvas dimensions should center or crop the output, then verify the behavior with a non-padded SVG rendered to a padded PNG at the requested sizes.
