Description

The idea here is to be able to select a target, then orbit around it while keeping the camera aimed at that target. This differs from what we already have in ConstrainedMove, in that one may orbit multiple times, and an orbit spec would be a circle with defined radius, velocity, etc.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing ConstrainedMove path entry point to understand the current camera and targeting behavior. Define the OrbitAround specification and its expected behavior for a selected target, repeated orbits, radius, velocity, and continuous camera aiming; done means the design and implementation support those requirements.
