PathSurface: Add select-face(s) feature and other improvements

New feature: Limit 3D Surface op to selected faces.

Disabled the IgnoreWaste feature, until it can be made compatible with new features.

New feature:  Face avoidance using new `AvoidLastXFaces` property.

New cut patterns: `Circular` and `CircularZigZag`.  New patterns include customizable center point and optional optimizations. Implemented G2/G3 gcode commands.

New feature: Safe travel for transitional paths. New methods to allow safe travel over stock, cut area, and avoided features.

New feature: Start point for operation. Choose a custom XY start point for the operation.

Restructure code to improve management and prepare for separation of the `Waterline` algorithm into an independent operation in the PathWB.

New feature: `ProfileEdges`.  Allows the user to profile the edges(boundary) of the selected face(s) with or without cutting the entire face area.

Add my name to the `Credits` tab in the `About FreeCAD` documentation.

Added new feature and property: `CutPatternReversed`. This will make Circular, Line, and ZigZag patterns work in reverse order - outside to inside.
