[GRASS-dev] proper v.parallel behavior on strange input

[Wolf Bergenheim]

I have 2 solutions depending on what you need. Solution A stays true to 
the direction of the line and follows it regardless of loops and what not.

Solution B will not cross the line. To get this solution you will 
probably have to find all the internal intersections of the line and at 
each intersection go so that you don't cross the line. Solution A is not 
concerned with intersections. It would be cool if v.parallel can support 
both, maybe via a switch.
