Thunderlaser: need setting to mirror axis #37

The Thunderlaser cutters use axis mirroring settings in rdworks as described here. Other cutters using the ruida controller may need different settings. In our case both x and y axes are mirrored in the rdworks settings, so when using visicut we get mirrored output (text reads right to left). For more general support of ruida controllers we need settings to control axis mirroring as we have in rdworks.

I've exported the same content from rdworks with each of the 4 mirroring combinations, and decoded the files. It looks like they achieve the mirroring by swapping the coordinates on the bounding boxes, but I've only looked at a simple case with one layer so far.

Decoded .rd files below for cutting 2 triangles on different layers for each of the axis mirroring combinations. The 'origin_tr' refers to the 'Laser Head' setting being the top right radio button.
