Add traverse adjustment tool for OpenRoads like Inroads V8i used.

A traverse adjustment tool would be useful when needing to balance the error of closure using the option of methods (the compass rule, the transit rule, and the crandall method)

    Traverse adjustments (including Compass/Crandall/Transit methods) are currently available in two locations in the product:
    1.) For survey fieldbook data, select the Adjustment field in the current fieldbook and in the Properties window, select the Adjustment Type desired (Least Square/Compass/Crandall/Transit)
    2.) In the Geometry Builder Edit tool, select the downward pointing arrow at the bottom right of the dialog, then set the End closure to Begin Point or to Fixed Point and select the Closure method desired (Force=new segment/Compass/Crandall/Transit)
