Outline and Brim Pathing

If you have one part with multiple points of contact to the build plate and brim is enabled s3d will do one perimeter of each brim and cycle back through.
This is inefficient and time consuming, having it complete each "island" then move on to the next would be optimal.

There is a similar situation when you have a part that has varying wall widths. s3d will do an inner perimeter for each section, traveling all over the place.
It could alternatively do all the parameters for a given section then move to the next completely, it would do this for each section until the point that they all share the perimeter.

All of the free slicer do this natively, I consider this a bug, it is time consuming, and annoying when using petg since it likes to build up on the nozzle.

Compared to free slicers pathing in S3d needs work, lots of it.
