Grid snapping for shapes and text #451

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When drawing graphs and geometric shapes, i would like to use the shapes to have precise integer sizes.

Describe the solution you'd like What I normally do on pen and paper is use paper with a 5mm grid so that i can easily draw and measure precise distances. Rnote already has background grid pattern that shapes could snap onto.

Describe alternatives you've considered There could be a way, in the ui to specify the dimensions and rotations wanted for the shape. I think it would also a great addition.

Also maybe a tool to measure distances could be added under the PenStyle::Tools?
