while constructing I miss often that one cannot insert directly rounded rectangles. As it is, one needs first to insert a rectangle, then go to fillet mode, then click 4 times, then set equal constraint, then often also replace the vertical/horizontal constraints since a rectangle must not necessarily be parallel to a sketch axis
As solution this PR adds rounded rectangles in one step. This saves a lot of time since this object is e.g. often used for milled rectangular pockets, for 3D-printed pads etc.
As discussed I grouped the rectangle and rounded rectangle.
==========================
* Enable to select any GeomTrimmedCurve (any arc supported by the Sketcher), as well as B-Splines.
* Use Edit Markers to provide visualisation of the cutting position and cut segment end point before trimming.
* Reject trimming Internal aligned geometry (internals of complex geometries such as ellipses or hyperbolas)

This commits removes the Geometry construction data member and adapts sketcher code to use
GeometryFacade to access construction information via the SketchGeometryExtension.

Until now BSpline poles were circles relying on physical length units. This lead to several
problems:
- While the BSpline weight follows the circle size, weights do not have length units, but are adimensinal
- As representation of the BSpline depends on the physical size of the circle, the numerical value to be
set to a pole circle differs from the numerical value of the weight.
The present commit:
1. Separates pole circle representation (physical size), from the numerical value used in the radius constraint,
so that the value in the constraint is the weight, the value representation is a factor of the weight value (in this
commit is getScaleFactor(), but this will change in the next commit). Dragging accounts for this scale factor too.
2. While Radius constraint button is used to constraint a B-Spline weight as before, this creates a Weight constraint,
which is a new type of constraint. This is done so that the value is truly adimensional and is so presented in all kind
of editors that rely on the units indicated by the constraint. It is obviously also shown as adimensional (thus without units),
in the 3D view and in the datum dialogs.
3. Because the circle of the pole of a B-Spline is not a geometric circle, but a graphical representation of the pole and how
it affects the corresponding B-Spline, constraint creation commands are limited so that no point on object, tangent, perpendicular
or SnellLaw constraints can be created on a B-Spline weight circle. This is also the case for the Diameter constraint, which won't
accept the circle. Equality constraints work either on only circles or only weights, but not on a mixture of them.
Bonus: This commit fixes a bug in master, that using the select equality constraint then click in two geometric elements mode, you
could make a circle equal to an ellipse resulting in malformed solver constraints.

The link support means that an object can now appear in more than one
places, and even inside a document different from its own. This patch
adds support for in-place editing, meaning that the object can be edited
at correct place regardless where it is.
See [here](https://git.io/fjPIk) for more info about the relavent APIs.
This patch includes two example of modifications to support in-place
editing. One is the ViewProviderDragger, which simply adds the dragger
node to editing root node by calling
View3DInventorViewer::setupEditingRoot(dragger). The other much more
complex one is ViewProviderSketch which calls setupEditingRoot(0) to
transfer all its children node into editing root. ViewProviderSketch
also includes various modifications to command invocation, because we
can no longer assume the active document is the owner of the editing
object.
This patch also includes necessary modification of the 'Show' module to
support in-place editing.

fixes#3974
Snapping to 45 degrees during arc creation (hold ctrl during an arc within a polyline), resulted in
reduced precision, because Gui::Command::doCommand %f defaults only to six decimal positions, which is
a poor representation in radians of, for example, 90 degrees.
A work-around could have been to hardcode a higher number of decimals, as in %0.Xf. However, I do not like
such magic numbers.
The solution chosen is to use an App.Quantity object using as units degrees, which leads to no loss of precision.
===============================================
It is a long felt need that redundant constraints are not generated while autoconstraining.
The solver sketcher in v0.17 is überpicky with redundants due to the new popularity contest algorithm. The former behaviour is exhacerbated.
This new mode enables automatic redundant constraint removal.
In UI operations IN EDIT MODE, upon detection of redundancy by the solver, the Sketcher will remove all redundant constraints detected by that solve.
This makes the sketcher much less annoying.
How to test this?
The easiest example is to create a vertical line. Then make the endpoints symmetric with respect to the horizontal axis. Without this mode,
the vertical constraint and the symmetry constraint are redundant. With this mode, the vertical constraint gets automatically removed by the Sketcher.
=================================================
With the support for external geometry during carbon copy, it was introduced a way for creating inter-part/inter-body links. See:
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=27700&p=223736#p223736
This commit closes this door, while still allows carbon copy with external geometry support within the same body.
