Moving a body transforms its intersection-curve edges, and truck-geometry 0.5.0 scales each curve's tolerance by the operator norm of the matrix. matext4cgmath 0.1.0 computes it from eigenvalues through a quartic whose Newton refinement loops while the residual is above a tolerance and never gives up. For a translation matrix all four eigenvalues are 1, and near that quadruple root the iteration can cycle forever (about one translation in eight of the boolean retries' shifts, by a scan of sizes 0.1-2000 mm). matext4cgmath is vendored with both Newton loops stopped after 100 steps (vendor/README.md, ATTRIBUTION.md).
truck master no longer computes the norm in transform_by, so the vendored copy can go once a truck release after 0.5.0 is adopted.
Tests: moving_a_body_with_an_intersection_curve_edge_ends (kernel) cuts a cylinder with a tilted box and moves the result by one of the shifts that hung (hangs on main). examples/regressions/oblique_cut_of_cylinder_hang.json is the variant of the oblique cut that hung the app; it hangs on main, and since the previous commit it passes without reaching the shifted retries, so it is replayed by the engine test as a scenario only.
