+- ImDrawList: Fixed/improved thickness of thick strokes with sharp angles. (#4053, #3366, #2964, #2868, #2518, #2183)
+  Effectively introduced a regression in 1.67 (Jan 2019), and a fix in 1.70 (Apr 2019) but the fix wasn't actually on
+  par with original version. Now incorporating the correct fix + tweaked threshold to further mitigate the effect of
+  varying thickness, up to a certain degree. Shapes with very sharp angles and thick strokes will extend a little more.
