Between two points, or on a line, that don't line up with an axis, the
Sketch Dimension tool only offered the distance between them: an auto
dimension ignored where its text went. Now the placement picks what it
measures: across from the two (between the perpendiculars through them)
the distance between them, as before; past that, above or below them the
horizontal distance, beside them the vertical one. With no text, an
explicit type, or two ends already on an axis, nothing changes.
The tool previews the dimension from the cursor, so the choice follows
the pointer while placing it.

* Honor design units in sketch dimensions and measurements
* fix: apply document units to specialized length controls
* Accept explicit units in length fields; document design-unit dimension values
Length fields in a design-unit control now evaluate what is typed as a
length expression: a bare number stays in the design's units, while an
explicit unit ("10 mm", "0.5 in", "1 in + 5 mm") is converted.
Document that a bare numeric sketch.dimension value from scripts, the
control channel or MCP is read in the design's units.
