[Feature Request] Do not slow movement of token if no visual rotations will happen. #82

Background

The party has a number of circular cutout tokens, instead of a top-down image token. As a result, rotation of the tokens is not desired. However one party member has a bullseye lantern and seeks to have a cone. For this reason, rotating the vision of the cone in the direction of movement is desired, but no other behavior is wanted.

The party is set up with rotation enabled but tokens locked, and with no indicator arrows.

When navigating by WASD, about face seems to slow the lateral movement until a full rotation can complete. For tokens which have no visual indication they are rotating (e.g. with no light sources or light sources of 360 degrees, and with 360 degrees of vision) the effect is an induced sluggishness when moving a direction the token was not previously facing.

An alternate workaround would be an option to snap-to the new facing always, without any animation.
