Organization chart: add new offsetDirection property to allow how offset property gets applied

[SteveSchreiner]

Description of the feature

Create a new organization chart property named "offsetDirection" that takes values of "vertical" or "horizontal". This would be used in conjunction with the existing "offset" property as current offset is only applied in fixed direction depending if chart is inverted or not. This would allow organization nodes to be shifted up or down, or left or right.

Hi @SteveSchreiner

Thank you for submitting the feature request.

Wouldn't it be more useful and simpler to add offset for the second dimension so you could use both horizontal and vertical offset at any time?

[SteveSchreiner]

@KacperMadej Thanks for the feedback. Agreed that would even be more useful to add the second dimension.
