Change a quote value modify the drawing + link quotes with entities

In other words, makes quotes editable AND linked to entities.

• Today in the properties, the value is read only. Being able to edit the value would modify the linked entity properties to fit the new quote.

• Changing a property would change the linked quotes accordingly. Today, if I change a circle diameter which is quoted, the quote remain where it was and is no more relevant.

Add drop object along a path with automatic trim.

1. The object can be a selection before or after selecting the tool, an entity or a block.

1. The path can be another entity from a start point to an end point.

1. Dropping can be made on one side or the other (like in other tools depending on the side of the cursor), with a choice of miroring the object or not.

1. The number of drops or the distance between can be selected.

1. The distance can be between a control point of the object or its sysmetry axis or border.

1. The dropping direction can be selected too.

1. The droping depth can be constrained : all control points have passed the path, or one of them. Alternatively, replace control points by an entity belonging to the object.

Exemple of use case : equidistant drills in a curved rail. The dropping depth constraint enables for example to ensure a drill has a minimal depth when not orthogonal to a plan.
