Bug Description

PROPOSAL:

In order to increase the usability of displaying the front side,
back-side, top-, down-side and so on. Here is a proposal for the
popup menu:

Menuentries:

1) Top View: the view as same as the view in pcbnew.

2) Align Viewport: aligns the viewport to 90° of the X- Y- or Z- axis
of the currently displayed viewport. i.e. floor(x + 45°), ...

3) Flip X-axis: flips towards the X-axis but from the currently displayed viewport.

4) Flip Y-axis: flips towards the Y-axis but from the currently displayed viewport.

5) Flip Z-axis: flips towards the Z-axis but from the currently displayed viewport.

This allows all kind of views and switching from front to back side,
regardles the actual position of the PCB.

The current popup menu entries for zooming and moving should be
removed. They are already accessible from the toolbar.
