Control the camera position #146

It would be nice to offer an API for the camera. An app using the library could offer some controls, for example

to zoom on a specific segment
to have a top/front/side view
reset the initial view

I don't have a particular design in mind, but it would be nice to have a layer of abstraction over three.js that hides the complexity of calculating position relative to the build volume and part dimensions.

maybe we can add these buttons for restoring the camera position in this change? https://github.com/remcoder/gcode-preview/pull/139/commits/d44c38efa58576152bdfdf9510ffbfaff7aaa57a
