This doesn't answer the question. If you're doing all this work in JS to render a static SVG, why not just "do it right" and output a static PNG instead?
The top of the PCB (the lines etc) are computed as an SVG, i would have to have an SVG rasterizer just to begin with that approach, then would be limited by what images I could rasterize. It would also be much much slower than quickly computing matrices
I was going to suggest raylib for server-side rendering, but it adds a non-JS dependency. Apparently it has optional support for rendering SVGs to textures.

Why use SVG for this, though? This could be easily implemented as pure JS software rasterizer without all the tessellation workarounds.

You might find that librsvg works for you.
