Adds a new overlay to the UV editor that colors vertices of faces based on the orientation of their face triangle. The "bad" orientation will always override the "good" orientation on vertices shared by multiple triangles. This was added on top of the stretch overlay functionality, which all together was renamed to UV Color as the new overlay is not stretch-related.

This patch was created during a creative jam and I mostly tried to replicate already existing Blender code, so I would appreciate any advice on how to make it better.

9a268be332 UV: add UV orientation overlay to UV editor

The overaly paints UV vertices with blue and red colors depending on
the orientation of their face triangle. Since triangles can share
vertices, the red color signifying opposite orientation will always
override blue color on a shared vertex.
