New attachment modes:
"Align O-Z-X"
"Align O-Z-Y"
"Align O-X-Y"
"Align O-X-Z"
"Align O-Y-Z"
"Align O-Y-X"
They allow to attach a sketch by picking origin point and sketch axes
directions.
Modes affected:
* NormalToEdge ("Z tangent to edge", "Normal to edge"),
* Tangent
In these attachment modes, if vertex is linked first, the origin was
supposed to be placed on the vertex, but it was placed on the edge
instead, due to a bug. This commit fixes the bug.
Projects will be broken, which use above mentioned attachment modes, and
link Vertex as first reference, and the vertex does not lie on the edge.
To repair a project, edit the corresponding attachments, and swap the
order of references.
This is the first feature that used GeoFeatureGroupExtension and required links to the groups inside as well as to things on the same level. Hence a few modifications to link scopes have been nesseccary.
+ use default constructor of BRepOffsetAPI_MakeOffsetShape since overloaded versions are deprecated
+ use default constructor of BRepOffsetAPI_MakeThickSolid since overloaded versions are deprecated
+ fix small bug in MeshVertex
+ replace Quantity_Parameter with Standard_Real is it's marked deprecated
+ include NCollection_Vector as it's needed by STEPCAFControl_Writer
+ remove GC_MakeConicalSurface used for cone and distance as this was never implemented in any earlier occ version and has been removed now
The extrema algorithm fails on touching (the manyfold detection fails to return a face, but several vertex, although a face is clearly touching and if bypassed the boolean succeeds), see

This commit enables the older boolean based intersection check.
Corrected docstrings for *At methods (valueAt, tangentAt etc.) to explain parameter position meaning
Improved docstrings for FirstParameter, LastParameter, Length and getParameterByLength
