Please add launch rail guides and buttons #22

I would love to see the ability to make radiused launch rail guides and rail buttons for 1010 and 1515 rails. A way to secure them through the airframe would be a huge plus!

This has already been implemented in a dev branch, with a lot of options including airfoiled versions. Attaching to the rocket is a whole different problem that I haven't resolved yet.

TL;DR coming soon.

You can preview the rail button design in the 'rocket_editor' branch. This is a development branch so there are many new features not working, but there are also a lot of new components in there that are working fine. Launch lugs, rail buttons, and rail guides are all new.
