`axis <degree | first>` Inversion axis

Where ^ mirrors. The default is degree 1. axis 3 mirrors around the third, and axis first mirrors each figure around its own first note.

With axis 3, 1 and 5 swap, so the tonic triad maps onto itself.
axis first is the textbook inversion: the figure starts on the same note and its intervals turn over.

The same figure mirrored around 1, then around 3.
