Description
Target Use case
Right now OrbitView is limited to one axis of full rotational freedom - from the docs:
OrbitView takes the same parameters as the View superclass constructor, plus the following:
orbitAxis (String, optional) - Axis with 360 degrees rotating freedom, either 'Y' or 'Z', default to 'Z'.
It would be great to allow full rotation on each axis, if desired
Proposed feature
Implement the ability to have full rotational freedom on every axis in OrbitView - alternatively, we could make a new view.

Research direction
Start with the OrbitView constructor documentation at the linked API reference and trace the existing orbitAxis behavior. Determine the design for full rotational freedom on every axis, then add the requested implementation, tests, documentation, and what's-new update; done means the feature is covered across those listed tasks.
