Polygon - an array of points

Adds simple boundary checking methods to Array.
(needs much more - such as inside check, area computation etc.)

Class protocol:

instance creation
o  fromRectangle: aRectangle
return a new polygon, taking the rectangles vertices

Usage example(s):

     Polygon fromRectangle:(50@50 corner:100@100)

o  vertices: anArrayOfPoints
return a new polygon, given a collection of vertices

Usage example(s):

     Polygon vertices:(Array with:10@10
                             with:20@20
                             with:30@30)

     Polygon vertices:(#(10 10  100 0  50 50) pairWiseCollect:[:x :y | x @ y]).

Usage example(s):

     |p v|

     v := View new openAndWaitUntilVisible.
     p := Polygon 
            vertices:(Array with:10@10
                            with:20@10
                            with:20@30).
     p displayOn:v


Instance protocol:

accessing
o  add: aPoint

o  vertices
return the array containing my points

o  vertices: anArrayOfPoints
set the array containing my points

converting
o  asChaikinCurve
return a new polygon, which is generated by applying
the chaikin corner cutting algorithm once
(see the example on the class side)

o  asChaikinCurve: level
return a new polygon, which is generated by applying
the corner cutting algorithm n-times.
(see the example on the class side)

Usage example(s):

     |p p2 p3 v|
     
     p := Polygon 
            vertices:{
                0 @ 0 .
                0 @ 100 .
                100 @ 100 .
                110 @ -10 .
                200 @ 150 
            }.
            
     v := (View extent:300@300) openAndWaitUntilVisible.
     v translateBy:50@250.
     v scale:(1 @ -1).
     v paint:Color blue.
     p displayStrokedOn:v.

     p2 := p asChaikinCurve:1.
     v paint:Color black.
     p2 displayStrokedOn:v.

     p3 := p asChaikinCurve:10.
     v paint:Color red.
     p3 displayStrokedOn:v.

o  asPointArray
return an array containing my vertex points.
Notice, that no copy of my vertices is created - you should not
modify the returned collections points (unless you want to affect
the polygon ...).

the graphicsContext, aGC
