Place a dimension that would over-constrain the sketch as a driven one (#366)
Sketch Dimension refused a dimension the sketch couldn't take, with "that dimension would over-constrain the sketch; add it as a driven (reference) dimension with driven: true", which the tool gave no way to do. It now places it as a driven dimension instead: while placing, the preview shows it in parentheses in the driven colour, and the click adds it at once (it has no parameter and no value to edit), with a status line saying why. Other refusals, such as an unsupported pick, are reported as before, since the driven dimension is refused too. Refs #320 Co-authored-by: Vitali M. <[email protected]>
