90f2040386 [PD] fix increment of helix growth
- it is not sensible that all helix geometries use 1 as increment in the dialog but the growth uses 5. Looking at the PR that introduced this feature it seems that this was just a copy issue from the angle edit since this uses 5 as increment.

- the other changes are from Qt's Designer

169c38622c [PD] Helix: Offer profile's normal as axis
Previously, only the vertical and horizontal axis of the profile was
selectable in the task panel of the additive/subtractive helix. Now the
profile's normal axis can be selected, too. This now allows to create
helical extrusions or "twisted pockets".

The order of the GUI entries was chosen to be in line with the order of
axis selection of the multi-transform parameters.
The actual feature's implementation needed adaption for this special case
as in some places a unit vector (`gp_Dir`) was derived from the cross-
product of axis and profile normal -- a null-vector when the axis *is*
the normal. This caused the gp_Dir's ctor to throw.

59ec3cb141 PartDesign: New features AdditiveHelix and SubtractiveHelix
These features, based on the code for the Pipe class, allow the user
to simply create a helical sweep within PartDesign workbench.

Sample application is threads, springs, coils, augers, etc.

Also, remove needless requirement for positive cone angle on helixes.

Enforce that links stay within scope for ProfileBased features
This also ensures that the Body itself is not used for creating features within
the body, causing a "Graph not a DAG" error.
