Subject: [PATCH] Path: Fix connected multi-face clearing bug

Identified by MLampert.  If multiple faces are selected at varying Z-heights, the `combineConnectedShapes()` method fails to connect them due to offset Z-heights.  This fix places all input faces for that method into the same working plane.
