Ability for Corridor Horizontal Parametric Constraints to be applied with Reverse Cubic Curves

In our legacy software we could quickly and easily apply a reverse cubic curve tapers for our designs without having to create Geometry and have our lane edges follow that - noting that the Geometry is not actually the required reverse cubic curva...
