Add bearing to Distance by Tap and Straight Line route sections

[Guylby]

Describe the idea

Hi,

Osmand is really useful for offline navigation and hiking thanks to the ability to download maps for pure offgrid use.

When hiking along established trails, there is no problem but for more advanced uses such as navigating without gps signal and without trails some simple changes in Osmand could really help:

• There is the Distance by Tap feature, which is really useful for estimating distance but it does not provide a bearing line for identification of terrain features.
  A simple solution would be to add the Magnetic North bearing next to the distance text on the Distance by Tap widget:

Actual Distance by Tap	Proposed Change with Magnetic North Bearing added to widget

Another improvement in the same vein would be to the Plan a Route window:
When you create points using the Straight Line parameter, you already have implemented the Distance from previous point and Bearing up to the next point, however the Bearing shown is not really useful (goes from -180° to 0° to 180°)
Simply replacing this Bearing with a Magnetic North Bearing would allow simple navigation with a compass.
Also, this info shown when creating the segments cannot be accessed when the track is saved, there is no window to show the points created, you have to edit the track and the information is not the same anymore:
The distance shown is not shown anymore as distance from previous point, but rather distance from start, which is not really useful for navigating from point to point, where you want to have the distance and bearing to point A, then the distance and bearing from A to B, etc

Plan a Route Menu with info about bearing and distance to next point	Edit Track menu showing points with bearing and distance from start
Plan a Route menu with the Straight Line Segment showing the distance and bearing to the next point. The bearing shown however is not a Magnetic North Bearing, reducing its usability	Editing an existing track with Straight Line Segments shows distances and bearings, but the distance are from the start and not the previous segment, while the bearing is not useful (showing negative values)

Another option would be to show the distance and bearing on the straight line segments of a route just the same as on the Distance by Tap widget, allowing full offgrid navigation with just a compass. This change would also allow to perform Position resection to find its own position based on lines drawn from identified landmarks on the map

Proposed change to show the length and bearing of straight line segment for tracks on the map

Expected behaviour

Show useful bearings and distance on the Distance by Tap and Plan a Route track builder.
