Description
General Idea
Ability to apply a hatching pattern to line geometries, and not have the pattern rotate with geometry angle.
Existing condition
Currently, hatch patterns that are applied to lines rotate with the line geometries, which leads to a warped, non-uniform pattern.
Desired condition
Line patterns should have the ability to be fixed, so that hatched line patterns are uniform and do not rotate with line geometries.
Here is a cartographic example of an administrative boundary line using this technique.

Research direction
The issue provides no file or test entry point. Start by locating line-pattern rendering in mapbox-gl-js and determine where pattern rotation is applied; done means line hatching can remain uniform and fixed instead of rotating with each line geometry.
