A face boundary vertex lying (within the weld distance) on an undivided edge of
the neighbouring face splits that edge's triangle. Only edges no other triangle
uses are looked at, so closed surfaces are unchanged. The half of a crank arm
cut on its symmetry plane tessellates with such a junction where the cut face
meets the top face; it now meshes (tet and swept hex).

* surface: weld at an absolute distance too; the engine welds CAD tessellations at twice SolidCraft's linear tolerance
Faces of a SolidCraft tessellation carry their own copies of shared boundary points, which agree
only to within the kernel's tolerance (up to ~2e-6 mm on the test corpus).

* surface: simplify after review
- The weld distance travels with the mesh (SurfaceMesh::weld_distance, set by Shape::tessellate),
so every consumer welds a tessellation correctly without opting in.
- Exact tests are infallible on predicates::orient2d_projected (shared with generic_orient2d), and
compute each vertex's plane side once per pair with an early reject.
- One Box3 for the weld, the BVH and shells; a Half struct for edges; the weld's two lookups share
one loop, with chained grid cells; cached normals for feature edges; shared parameter helpers.

* corpus: boundary surface preparation as a corpus stage
20 of 21 parts are valid boundaries with their expected genus; cross-cylinders' tessellation has
cracks and flipped triangles where its two intersection curves meet.
