Optionally, support two different images for each end of the line.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the line-rendering and sprite-handling entry points in mapbox-gl-js, then determine how line-end orientation and optional per-end images are represented. Done means supporting rotationally aligned icons at line ends, with distinct images for the two ends when requested.
