[geos-devel] GEOSNode usage: what should g be?

[Roger Bivand]

Answering my own question, g can be LineString and GeometryCollection, I
haven't tested MultiLineString. The returned objects are MultiLineString.

Testing with the original problem (a twisted bowtie polygon coerced to
LineString), with a 2D rectangular random walk with 999 segments, and 100
random segments shows no issues, with the noded output feeding through to
polygonizing without obvious failures.
