Allow taxi distance to be specified relative to the target node

Feature request

Description of new feature

Enhance taxi edges so that taxi-turn would accept an absolute distance from the target (could be a negative number as currently, positive number is the absolute distance from the source)

{
  selector: 'edge',
  style: {
    'curve-style': 'taxi',
    'taxi-direction': 'rightward',
    'taxi-turn': '-15px', // negative numbers used to denote distance from target
  }
}

• red line is the current implementation while the dotted line is how I wished it would render

Motivation for new feature

Have more control over the edges rendering
