Align to Rectangle should support 0°/180° connections

[xeen]

e.g.

1. create an almost rectangular playground with four nodes
2. add a way that "ends" in the playground (not on the edges)
3. Rectifying the playground fails, because the nodes aren't almost 90°/270°.

It would be nice if this could be implemented.

I like the new rectifier a lot. It even works on multiple ways at a time, interconnected or not. That's more than someone might expect.

However I have exactly this issue on drawing building outlines side-by-side, if there is any offset and one building shares only part of a "wall"-way with another one.

ascii art:

 +---+         +-----------+
 |   +---+     |        |  |
 |   |   |     +--+     |  |
 +---+   |     |  +-----+  |    ...
     +---+     +--+     +--+

I'm always forced to draw a suitable reduced-node-way on top, rectify and delete that way again. Think of houses in a row like the pattern about ... I've done dozens already. Would be more than happy to see this enhancement soon.

I believe OrthogonalizeAction does this.
