Inconsistencies on how the API reports line rotation vs what we show on the UI.

Looks like we have an inconsistency on how we report rotation in the API vs how we do it on the UI.

If you draw a diagonal line at 45 degrees, Sketch's UI will show 45 on the Inspector.

However, this code will return 0 as the rotation:

const sketch = require('sketch')

let doc = sketch.getSelectedDocument()
let selection = doc.selectedLayers
console.log(selection.layers[0].transform.rotation) // JS API
console.log(selection.layers[0]._object.rotation()) // Raw access

If you now set the line's rotation to 0 using the Inspector, running the same code will now return an apparently random number...

Probably worth investigating both on the API side and on Sketch's side.
