Class CMLayerGraticule extends CM2Layer

CMLayerGraticule

by: Jim Graham

This class required a level of complexity beyond what I initially expected.
The problem is that we have to:
- Draw graticule lines based on the zoom level, projection, and area viewed
- Paint coordinates along the border based on where the graticules intersect with the border
- Paint coordinates along the outside of the graticule grid if it is visible (i.e. does not
intersect with the border.

Settings used are:
- Style: for lines
- TextStyle: for labels in the map

Graticles are made visible by setting the overall style to transparent. The graticules must be drawn to get the intersections for the exterior and border
