Elliptical Arc drawing in graphics

[jfgilliam]

Given a bounding rectangle (x,y,width,height) and startingangle and endingangles, I would like to be able to draw an elliptical arc of a specific stroke width and color. Can this be added to the graphics module? If not, can it be done with a series of quadradicCurveTo statements?

I think it makes sense to use svg's api for an elliptical arc. I think it provides a lot of flexibility.
It requires the end points, angle rotation, semi-major/semi-minor axes and large arc and sweep flags. I should be able to get it done in the next sprint.

Thanks for considering it.
