Freestyle: New line style options for sorting and chain selection.

The following two sort keys are added for sorting chains.

* Projected X - Sort by the projected X value in the image coordinate system.
* Projected Y - Sort by the projected Y value in the image coordinate system.

A new line style option for the selection of first N chains is also added.

Moreover, the chain sorting and chain selection operations are now executed
in this order instead of the reverse order used previously.  The UI has also
changed accordingly.  This functional change is backward compatible and
won't result in visual differences.
