LINES2D Description of functions operating on planar lines.
The term 'line' refers to a planar straight line, which is an unbounded
curve. Line segments defined between 2 points, which are bounded, are
called 'edge', and are presented in file 'edges2d'.
A straight line is defined by a point (its origin), and a vector (its
direction). The parameters are bundled into a 1-by-4 row vector:
LINE = [x0 y0 dx dy];
A line contains all points (x,y) such that:
x = x0 + t*dx
y = y0 + t*dy;
for all t between -infinity and +infinity.
