[FR] Travel Distance and # Retractions Stats #990

I think it would be very helpful to see the total travel move distance and number of retractions reported here:

It would help you tune different settings for retraction and travel to optimize the print.

Any thoughts on this @supermerill ?

It's a gui stuff, so it may takes days to have a good result. I'll do it only if i'm sure it's easy to add, or it rise up in priority a lot.

To add a thought: Having information about the number of retractions could help to decide on which slicer setting might be better for a given model / filament to avoid filament grinding.
