New Feature: Braided Curve

Hey all! Wanted to model some braided wires for fun, and couldn't find a custom feature to generate the braid paths. Slapped one together real quick, snag it here:

Eventually I'll add options for more than 3 strands (right now the logic is all kinda hard-coded for 3 strands). Also, sneak preview of another feature for when you want to model stranded core wires :)
