NEW: LPE Boolops

[bulia byak]

By the way, the same file shows how the Union boolop (at least) fails
in many configurations. Select the red shape and start pressing
Shift+right arrow:

4 keypresses: there appears a hole at the tip of blue curve

7 keypresses: the result degrades to a single point

8 and more keypresses: blue curve is just ignored in the union

18 keypresses: all is correct again

Well, not exactly.  It's more that it's showing up an existing problem
in 2geom.  Boolops is evidently turning the closing segment of unclosed
paths into a giant continuity stitch, which is very wrong.  (It should
instead be using the existing final closing segment provided for the
purpose of treating unclosed paths as closed.)
