Draw an arc from the current point, through point1, and ending at point2 :param point1: point to draw through :type point1: 2-tuple, in workplane coordinates :param point2: end point for the arc :type point2: 2-tuple, in workplane coordinates :return

        Future Enhancements:
            provide a version that allows an arc using relative measures
            provide a centerpoint arc
            provide tangent arcs
