I would like teardrop and heart tools as two of the shape options similar to the ones from Affinity Designer.

Research direction
Start by examining the existing shape tool implementations, such as ellipse.rs or rectangle.rs in the editor's source code. Look at how the shape is defined, how it is rendered, and how it integrates with the tool system. Then implement the teardrop and heart shapes following the same pattern. Consider referencing Affinity Designer's implementation for inspiration.
