Animation control is opaque and hard to understand #46

Rendering steps and rendering interval don't make much sense. They're difficult to relate because the relations are done lazily.

Circle/Ellipse animators include a revolutions concept, but no "distance`.

BezierCurve animators use distance.

Q: How much control should be allowed during animation vs. pre-cooked at the beginning?

What about trimming? How does that work on different paths?

beginAnimation doesn't just begin it; it does the entire thing!

This all will need documentation improvement, too.
