Fix T95648: Rigify: use eye axis in computing the eyelid tracking weights.

If the coordinate space of the eyelids is computed only from the
eye rotation center points and corners, it fails if the center is
close or in front of the line connecting the corners.

Instead, compute the space based on the main eye axis plus the line
between corners, which only slightly changes the result compared to
the previous method, but is more robust.
