Pcbnew, Excellon drill file generator: Oval holes: add a routing mode G01 command.

It can be used instead of the slot (G85) command to create oval holes.
Do not yet activate it.

Oval holes frequently create issues with board houses.
Using a more usual routing (G01) command could solve some issues.
