Add radial grids #177

Closed Notgnoshi closed 1 month ago

Notgnoshi commented 2 months ago

Closes #172 Closes #178

Intended use is for a more interesting grid for use in asemic writing.

[ ] (deferred to #6 and #179) Add simplify (and densify) tool
[ ] (deferred to #180) Add generic rhai script to transform tool
[x] Generate radial grid in x,y in grid tool
- [x] Make --output-format=lines output the rings as POLYGONs, so that smooth smooths just them, and not the radial spokes.
- [x] Maybe tunable enough that it should be its own radial tool?

Get to the bottom of whether round-tripping can be expected to work

This makes sense. Given a rectangular (x, y) grid with a row of points for x=0, if you suddenly decide that those (x, y) points are (r, theta) points, then every x=0 point now maps to the origin (because r=0 is the origin no matter what theta is).
