   \brief Vector library - intersection

   Higher level functions for reading/writing/manipulating vectors.

   Some parts of code taken from grass50 v.spag/linecros.c

   Based on the following:

   <code>
   (ax2-ax1)r1 - (bx2-bx1)r2 = ax2 - ax1
   (ay2-ay1)r1 - (by2-by1)r2 = ay2 - ay1
   </code>

   Solving for r1 and r2, if r1 and r2 are between 0 and 1, then line
   segments (ax1,ay1)(ax2,ay2) and (bx1,by1)(bx2,by2) intersect.

   Intersect 2 line segments.

   Returns: 0 - do not intersect
   1 - intersect at one point

   Sometimes (often) is important to get the same coordinates for a x
   b and b x a.  To reach this, the segments a,b are 'sorted' at the
   beginning, so that for the same switched segments, results are
   identical. (reason is that double values are always rounded because
   of limited number of decimal places and for different order of
   coordinates, the results would be different)

     *  
     *  Question: Snap all breaks to each other within RE threshold?
     *
     *  Note: If a break is snapped to end point or two breaks are snapped to the same vertex

     *  Note: once we snap breaks to vertices, we have to do that for both lines A and B in the same way
     *  and because we cannot be sure that A childrens will not change a bit by break(s) 
     *  we have to break both A and B  at once i.e. in one Vect_line_intersection () call.
