* \brief tries to consistently orient a soup of polygons in 3D space.
*
* When it is not possible to produce a combinatorial manifold surface,
* The algorithm re-orients polygons such that the orientation
* of adjacent polygons is consistent. Note that the adjacency is
* defined in a combinatorial sense, i.e. two polygons are sharing
* an edge if and only if the endpoints of this edge are represented
* by the same point indices in both faces (possibly in a different order);
* it is not sufficient for the points to be geometrically identical.
* One may use `CGAL::Polygon_mesh_processing::merge_duplicate_points_in_polygon_soup()`
* to convert geometrical point equality into combinatorial point equality.
*
* When it is not possible to produce a combinatorial manifold surface
* (for example, if the polygon soup makes up a Möbius strip),
* some points are duplicated.
* Because a polygon soup does not have any connectivity (each point
* has as many occurrences as the number of polygons it belongs to),
* duplicating one point (or a pair of points)
* amounts to duplicate the polygon to which it belongs.
* amounts to duplicating the polygon to which it belongs.
*
* These points are either an endpoint of an edge incident to more
* than two polygons, an endpoint of an edge between
