Custom Feature: Frame Trim/Extend

I suspect this will get added to std at some point since it's a common feature to frame generators in other CAD packages like SW and Inventor, but while we wait, here's a quick and dirty upgrade to frame trim that allows frame profiles to be extended to faces if the face plane doesn't intersect the body. It's essentially a std copy of frame trim with an extra checkbox when doing a face trim "Extend profile". When checked it will attempt to extend the profile instead of trimming, again, if the face plane doesn't intersect.
It's probably not very efficient and there might be a few bugs, I welcome any feedback on how to improve it.

Enjoy! 😁
