Vega-force testing ground

A Vega port of the force testing ground I originally made in D3.

Features I can't figure out how to port to Vega:

  • Need "actualWidth" and "actualHeight" signals for autosized SVG
  • Position signal control as text label <br/> control (would need feature to specify label's parent element or specify descriptive text)
  • forceX and forceY don't seem to behave correctly
  • Can't disable/enable link force (may need "enabled" parameter for force)
  • Get simulation alpha (likely not possible with vega)
  • circle radius = collideRadius (problem with using path instead of circle?) (thanks Jeff Heer)
  • circle stroke color doesn't like ternary operator (thanks Jeff Heer)
