Specifies the method that is used to generate the connector path.
Highcharts provides 3 built-in connector shapes: 'crookedLine'
(default since v11), 'fixedOffset' and 'straight'.
Users can provide their own method by passing a function instead of a string. Three arguments are passed to the callback:
An object that holds the information about the coordinates of the
label (x & y properties) and how the label is located in
relation to the pie (alignment property). alignment can by one
of the following: 'left' (pie on the left side of the data
label), 'right' (pie on the right side of the data label) or
'center' (data label overlaps the pie).
An object that holds the information about the position of the
connector. Its touchingSliceAt porperty tells the position of
the place where the connector touches the slice.
Data label options
The function has to return an SVG path definition in array form (see the example).
