improve polar setConvert

- introduce 'g'eomtric coordinate system, that handles
  angular rotation / directrion and radial range shifts
- add 't'icks coord system for angular axes tick vals
- add setGeometry (which sets the c2g converters)
- make 'c' linear theta coordinates be in radians,
  eliminating trace.thetaunit deps after 'calc'
