Modeling / Edge Flow addon installed by default and better integrated

github.com/BenjaminSauder/EdgeFlow/tree/blender_28

Benjamin Sauder take at implementing the popular tool in 3ds max and maya. This addon has two operators :

Set Flow This adjusts the edgeloop via a spline interpolation such that it respects the flow of the surrounding geometry.

Set Linear This tool has two modes, the first makes each selected edge loop linear, the later works on edge rings and straightens them and adjusts each edge length.

This is a super useful tool and should be brought more upfront of blender. It should be added by default or at least present in the addons menu.

Once installed/integrated it should have its own icon on the toolbar and should apear in both right click context menu and component drop down menus. For now there is a little inconsistency by which it doesnt appear in the context menu but only in the component drop down menu
