I have made further cleanup in Bezier and B spline surface code, and
corrected the bug in face creation for B splines (Nate has also written
that that was incomplete).
I have converted Nate's b-spline generation to use my superclass
FeatureBSurf and added it to the GUI. Other half-ready operations as
filling and cut are commented out.
Missing:
- the fill type must be queried from the user. The data panel lets it
modify, but it is not user-friendly.
- b-spline surface is generated, but it covers only a fraction of the
supporting curves. It may lie on OCC error.
The subshape is copied to prevent the wire tool from modifying it. This
lets the user modify any supporting Bezier curves and the Bezier surface
will follow them.
One gets the curve and the location from the healed wire. However, the
curve has the original coordinates, the transformation the user used to
obtain it need to be applied before adding it to the surface builder.
Modifications for:
- let the surface workbench appear
- use only one Surface menu and toolbar instead of two separate ones
- create a Bezier surface using 2..4 Bezier curves (does not work yet)
- use enums for fill type

=============================================================
Prior this commit, if a body has transparency (let's say 55%) and a new feature is added, the transparency is lost until you update it again in the body.
This prevents to actually see through while editing the feature (e.g. while setting the length of a pad) and is very annoying as the user
is required to go back to the body properties, where the old value (e.g. 55%) would still be there and change it to another value (56%) to effect it.

Carbon copy checks for parallel planes, translated origin and rotated axes, so that it can provide flipping detection when using reverse mappings.
This commit enables you to press CTRL will activating the tool in order to bypass this checks. Without the checks you will get a sketch exactly as the one
you want to copy, there are no corrections at all. This enables you to copy a profile on a new plane at a different direction for example for lofting purposes.
