Enhancing toolpath preview: direction of cutting #4

It would be nice if we can somehow see which direction it's going to cut. Maybe a small triangle at the start and end point of the toolpath?

Nice. Added this in the latest CNC milling example with the Vector preview function. Seems to work well: https://github.com/fellesverkstedet/Bark-beetle-parametric-toolpaths/commit/16ac5d37f695df213bd08f93fc9eb13710d35a9a
