===========================
Plot cutouts on the flatmap
===========================

Cutouts are manually generated cuts of the cortical surface to highlight
a region of interest.

Cutouts are defined as sub-layers of the `cutouts` layer
in <filestore>/<subject>/overlays.svg.

The parameter `cutout` of the `quickflat.make_figure` method should be the
name of the flatmap cutout defined in the `overlays.svg` file.
