Adds the optional "top and bottom" selectors to the drill operation. This enables things like roughing down to the top of a hole that starts in a pocket, then creating a drill operation that starts at the bottom of the pocket rather than wasting time drilling through material that's already been cleared.

This PR contains the fix in #517 (plus the features on top)

The behavior semantics are:

  • If "top" is set, start the drill operation there. The "from stock top" option is ignored.
  • If "bottom" is set, the drill operation goes no deeper than the bottom.

Other modifiers (mark, drill thru) are respected.

Example (Z top is set, Z bottom is not):
