Left/right image alignment options are incoherent #622

What do we want "align left" and "align right" to mean?

In the current version of the software (Jan 2, commit 8bdb8a6), with the "knit side" box unchecked, looking at the purl side:

I'm not sure what the original Brother software does, but the current behaviour seems wrong. If "align left" means "align on the LHS of the screen", then that should happen whether or not the "knit side image" checkbox is checked. If "align left" means "align in the LHS of the finished garment", then that is the reverse of what is happening at the moment.

Now that we have renamed the needle sides "left" and "right" instead of "orange" and "green", it is clear that "Left" and "right" in means left and right on the screen, not on the eventual garment.
