Non planar slicing #87

Description

@vanDerAlgiers

Expected Behavior

In many projects, printing is performed on an inclined surface, such as a tube, sphere, or deformed surface, where conventional slicing does not work. The expected behaviour is to take the base surface as the slicing plane.

Possible Solution

Using the base surface of the part as the slicing plane, duplicate it along the perpendicular z-axis.
