Idea: Polar/Circular Charts #119

Description

I've got a desire to display streaming data on a circular area. I'm wondering if it would make sense to extend Smoothie to do this or maybe fork and rework to be independent.

The center would be t=0 and the edge would be like t=10s (default). A value (or multiple) from [0-2π) (or maybe allows wrapping) is then charted and animates towards the edge of the circle, dissapearing when it gets there.

Any thoughts on implementing this? I'm not super familiar with how canvas does drawing efficiently and if we can just slide the data to the edge as I'm thinking.

Related Idea: Plotting on a 2D grid and having old values fade away.

Thoughts?
