New RoundedTrapezoidBox generator #908

Description

@jonrsawyer

By suggesting a new box generator or other feature I agree to test cut it until it works. I understand that this may take a few attempts. As soon as it does work I will happily provide a sample image that can be used in the user interface or the documentation.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I need a variant of RoundedBox that makes a trapezoidal box as seen from the top. I envision supplying two X dimensions instead of just one. I also need the ability to specify two separate corner diameters, one each for the "narrow" and "wide" sides of the trapezoid.

To be clear:

  • this would be a isosceles trapezoid as seen from the top, symmetric about the Y axis.
  • The side walls would still be perpendicular to the base; I'm not looking to create a pyramidal shape.

All of this capability seems to exist somewhere; there are other boxes with trapezoidal components, and FlexBox5 allows different diameters for each end. But I don't see a way to get what I want with the existing box generators. Am I missing anything?

Describe the solution you'd like
A new generator, RoundedTrapezoidBox, that is similar to RoundedBox but takes two distinct X dimensions and two distinct Diameter dimensions.

** Pictures of something similar **
I've been unable to find a picture of what I'm looking for. Hopefully my description is adequate.
