We continue migrating KCL stdlib functions to use keyword arguments. Next up is the `angledLine` family of functions (except `angledLineThatIntersects, which will be a quick follow-up).
Before vs. after:
`angledLine({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)`
=> `angledLine(angle = 90, length = 3, tag = $edge)`
`angledLineOfXLength({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)`
=> `angledLine(angle = 90, lengthX = 3, tag = $edge)`
`angledLineOfYLength({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)`
=> `angledLine(angle = 90, lengthY = 3, tag = $edge)`
`angledLineToX({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)`
=> `angledLine(angle = 90, endAbsoluteX = 3, tag = $edge)`
`angledLineToY({angle = 90, length = 3}, %, $edge)`
=> `angledLine(angle = 90, endAbsoluteY = 3, tag = $edge)`

Draw a line relative to the current origin to a specified distance away from the current position along the 'x' axis.
xLine(
sketch: Sketch,
length?: number,
endAbsolute?: number,
tag?: TagDeclarator,
): Sketch
Arguments
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|

Sketch |
Which sketch should this path be added to? | Yes |
length |
number |
How far away along the X axis should this line go? Incompatible with endAbsolute. |
No |
endAbsolute |
number |
Which absolute X value should this line go to? Incompatible with length. |
No |
tag |
TagDeclarator |
Create a new tag which refers to this line | No |
Returns
