Mirrored symmetry changes to 2x radial symmetry when editing part properties

...and sometimes even when you don't edit properties but just spam symetry button - had the same bug with wheels attached to rover base suddenly flip symetry setting to radial (and also invert mirroring relative to pivot point at the same time) in VAB when building horizontal vessel (rover) - so generally, there is a bug there with switching the symetry modes in general

I was about to file a duplicate of this, but here's what I found, running the 2023-03-16 patch:

  1. Go to VAB, and start building a plane.
  2. Add a pair of wings with aeroplane (mirror) symmetry. They look normal.
  3. Click on the little spanner (aka wrench) icon to open the wing shape edit dialog.

While the wing shape edit dialog is open, one of the wings is displayed as being upside down, as if it was attached with radial symmetry.

Closing the shape edit dialog causes the wing to flip back to mirror symmetry.

Yah mirror mode definitely puts one wing upside down and the other the right way around WHILST EDITING THE DIMENSIONS OF THE WING, resulting in craft instability.

Same with me! The flip doesn't seem to stay. Right after closing the wing editor, it flips back to Mirror symmetry. The first flip was never permanent for now.
