Core FormFactors: rotation and slices

Review mechanism for particle rotation and slices.

  • Reconsider the API: Are particles centered at center or at bottom (related to multilayer issues)? Where is the rotation center? [Redmine 2471]
  • Warn about unsupported situations [Redmine2516].
  • Improve over the polyhedral approximation to elliptical shapes [Redmine2299 ?].
  • Support rotations of box (and many other FFs?) [Redmine2477].
  • Improve test coverage [Redmine2309] #241.
  • Review handling of compound particles #335 (closed).
  • Ditto for crystals #161 (closed).
