Description

Add a conversion so that the eigenvector 3d set converts itself to a form that matches a 3d rotation matrix. Will need to calculation the permutation matrix to do this.

This is an interesting/fast way to draw it, get the cholesky decomposition and then do a transformation from spherical unit vectors to the ellipsoid locations.

Haven't done anything about the cholesky operation, but jae-yeong added a routine to check that the resulting set is sorted and normalised enough to produce a right handed co-ordinate system. This is enough for most use cases.
