is O(n^2), not perfectly robust, and the bridge-finding code is
particularly bad. But it works, triangulates, and shouldn't ever
generate zero-area triangles like gl does.

from an extrusion, with piecewise linear trim curves for everything
(that are shared, so that they appear only once for the two
surfaces that each trims). No Boolean operations on them, and the
triangulation is bad, because gl seems to merge collinear edges.
So before going further, I seem to need my own triangulation code.
I have not had great luck in the past, but I can't live without it
now.

so now we've got the exact curve loops, with their direction
standardized so that we can tell which direction is out. We still
need the polygon in any case, since that's a convenient way to find
each curve's winding number.
And remove some more leftover code from mesh sweeps.

piecwise linear segments. These are piecewise linear approximated
for display, and currently for the mesh too, but that's the first
step to replace the mesh with exact curved surfaces.
