to assemble Beziers into outer and inner loops, and find those
loops made up of entities with filled styles. The open paths are
maintained in a separate list, and we assemble as many closed paths
as possible even when open paths exist.
This changes many things. The coplanar check is now performed on
the Beziers, not the resulting polygon. The way that the polygon is
used to determine loop directions is also modified.
Also fix the mouse behavior when dragging a point: drop it when the
mouse is released, even if it is released outside the window, but
don't drop it if the pointer is dragged out of and then back into
our window.
Also special-case SSurface::ClosestPointTo() for planes, for speed.

and parametric entities. Also consolidate the text screen functions
to change group options into a single function for everything.

surface's domain of u, v in [0, 1]. Cache the starting guess when
projecting a point into a ratpoly surface, to avoid brute force
searching for a good one every time. Split edges even if they
aren't quite inside the trim curve, since the trim boundaries are
pwl, not exact; unnecessary splits won't hurt, but failure to split
when necessary will. Make the triangulation code use a better (but
not perfect) epsilon, to avoid "can't find ear" failures on very
fine meshes.
And turn on compiler optimization! I had somehow forgotten about
that, and it's a ~2x improvement.

export an inexact curve by approximating it with piecwise cubic
segments (whose endpoints lie exactly on the curve, and with exact
tangent directions at the endpoints).

feared. Though I don't have rational surfaces or curves going yet,
and I don't have the stuff to handle holes or multiple outer
contours in a single surface.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1974]
of revolution, and put them in the same form as if they had been
draw by an extrusion (so that we can use all the same special case
intersection curves).
And add code to merge coincident faces into one. That turns out to
be more than a cosmetic/efficiency thing, since edge splitting
fails at the join between two coincident faces.

window screen, and remind the user that they could 'fix' the
problem by working with meshes instead.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1962]
according to the user's preference. I templated the housekeeping
stuff for Boolean operations and step and repeat, so it's
relatively clean.
Still need to add the stuff to make a mesh vertex-to-vertex, and to
export sections of a mesh.

triangulate correctly; don't screw up generating them, and make
sure that the ratpoly stuff doesn't blow up near the singularity.

parallel axis (which are always lines parallel to that axis).
Remove short pwl segments when possible, to avoid short edges that
get misclassified.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1952]
a grid of quads, with adaptive spacing. The quads that lie entirely
within the trim polygon are triangulated and knocked out from the
polygon, and then the polygon is triangulated.
That works okay, though rather slow. But there are issues with
surfaces of revolution that touch the axis, since they end up with
a singularity. That will require some thought.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1951]
our specified section plane; we then split them according to the
start and endpoints of each STrimBy, using de Castejau's algorithm.
These sections get projected (possibly in perspective, which I do
correctly) into 2d and exported.
Except, for now they just get pwl'd in the export files. That's the
fallback, since it works for any file format. But that's the place
to add special cases for circles etc., or to export them exactly.
DXF supports the latter, but very painfully since I would need to
write a later-versioned file, which requires thousands of lines of
baggage. I'll probably stick with arcs.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1936]
and curve.cpp and surface.cpp contain the rest.
Also get rid of the meshError stuff; will just use the nakedEdges
mechanism for that. And I won't run the interference test
continuously, have added a menu item for that.
