Hi there. These questions are best asked on the development mailing
list. I have CCed it.

No. Snapshots are almost always broken and we don't support them. If
your distributions rules prohibit you from using a git checkout pinned
to a specific revision, but allow a tarball of that revision, I'd
suggest your distribution's processes are broken :)
You are of course at liberty to checkout a specific revision, and then
tar that up yourself.

No. libsvgtiny parses a subset of SVG and creates a list of
instructions for what to draw. It does no rendering itself. It depends
on some of the other libraries in the NetSurf suite, but none are that
large.
