* Tangent hole contacts: every symmetric contact gives the same faces (#307)
Three things made the four symmetric contacts of reference case 42 differ:
- The 2D prism boolean's ray-parity test miscounted a ray grazing the bottom
of a patterned hole, whose two halves are read back with centres a few ulps
apart: one half counted the touch, the other missed it. The loop chaining
then failed and those cuts fell back to the general boolean, which treats
circles tangent within its tolerance as overlapping and splits the hole.
The ray is now moved off vertices and arc extremes by far less than any
modelling tolerance.
- The prism result's volume check used a coarser mesh than the operands, so
a plate with many holes read too large and correct results were rejected.
- The merged topology did not join a hole's two pieces across the line where
two tangent holes touch (four faces meet there).
Case 42 now gives 39 faces (33 holes, 6 planes); its expected.json pins it.
