Get BallCutter to work for bull nose cutters

Original issue reported on code.google.com by danhe...@gmail.com on 19 Mar 2010 at 1:15

r124 now has a first try at this.
BullCutter(d,r) defines a filleted endmill with diameter d and corner radius r.
it is an error if d<2r

in addition to testing BullCutter on its own it could make sense to compare
BallCutter(d) results with BullCutter(d,d/2) which in theory should be 
identical.
BullCutter(d,0) should be identical to CylCutter(d), but r=0 for BullCutter 
does not
work presently (I think)

There is a video of a one-triangle test of BullCutter here:

I am calling this fixed for now. bug reports with attached STL-files and a 
minimal
python script that reproduces any problems are gladly accepted...
