* PartDesign: Improve orientation behavior for conical helices
As identified in the forum
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=65136
The Freenet orientation mode does not give expected results for helices with cone angle.
By using an auxiliary helix that is axially offset it is guaranteed that the orientation frame
is always consistent with a cylindrical coordinate system.
Results will be the same as before when cone angle is 0.
By reusing the property docs as tooltip we avoid maintaining the same
information in two places. The propery descriptions have been made
translatable, too, to ensure a fully translatable UI.
The ground work for this was layed by the work on Issue 0002524, long
time ago: https://tracker.freecadweb.org/view.php?id=0002524
[PD]: Fix helix property visibility/writeability
* Hide irrelevant and internal helix properties
- The `HasBeenEdited` property is only used internally to check whether to
fill certain other parameters with initial values. So there is no need
show it in the property grid at all.
- The `Outside` property is only used in the subtractive helix and thus
hidden for the additive helix.
* Make derived helix properties read-only
Depending on the input mode, some properties are primary input, others
are derived. Prior to this change, also the derived properties have been
writable but their values are ignored and overwritten on the next
recompute. Now, when changing the input mode, only the primary input
props are writable.
* Reorder some helix properties
This change puts the reference axis and input mode at the top to become
more prominent. Only "Base" and "Axis" are higher in the list for
consistency with the other axis-based features.
Depending on the input mode, either `Growth` or `Angle` is used to create
a conical or flat spiral. The respective other can easily be calculated
to give consistent view. This is already done for the other properties,
e.g. `Height` is calculated from `Pitch` and `Turns`.
With this patch, the same is done for `Angle` and `Growth`.
Introduce an enum to verify the axis depending on the used context.
* For helix no restriction is needed
* For Pad/Pocket the axis must not be parallel with the sketch plane
* For Revolve/Groove the axis must not be perpendicular with the sketch plane
Helices that become smaller with every turn are geometrically perfectly valid. Therefore we cannot forbid this.
(For example when creating a helix from a face you often cannot move it so that you can apply a positive growth.)
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.
- Helix: the property Turns has the App::PropertyFloatConstraint thus also the pointer to it must have the same property
- LinearPattern and Helix: make constraints static class member (forgot this in commit 114bdf6b)
- Draft: make the constraint const
- PolarPattern and LinearPattern assure that the header file is loaded at last to avoid potential troubles
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.
