Document line curve options

An extremely basic MVC explaining that it is possible to adjust how lines in a flowchart are curved, while listing (some of?) the available options.

I doubt I've captured all of the curve options, but capturing the existence of curve options is a start.

- mermaid-js#580 (comment) where a user references adding the feature to Mermaid
- Which references https://github.com/d3/d3-shape/blob/master/README.md#curves and I think is worth including here

+### Styling line curves
+
+It is possible to style the type of curve used for lines between items, if the default method does not meet your needs.
+Available curve styles include `basis`, `bump`, `linear`, `monotoneX`, `monotoneY`, `natural`, `step`, `stepAfter`,
+and `stepBefore`.
+
+In this example, a left-to-right graph uses the `stepBefore` curve style:
+
+```
+%%{ init: { 'flowchart': { 'curve': 'stepBefore' } } }%%
+graph LR
+```
+
+For a full list of available curves, including an explanation of custom curves, refer to
+the [Shapes](https://github.com/d3/d3-shape/blob/main/README.md#curves) documentation in the
+[d3-shape](https://github.com/d3/d3-shape/) project.
