#1072: Setting precision of topologically invalid polygon returns incomplete
results when preserving topology

Component:  Default       |    Version:  3.5.1
 Severity:  Unassigned    |   Keywords:

 Used via C API GEOSGeom_setPrecision_r.


 Given an invalid input polygon (bowtie): "POLYGON((0 0, 2.1 2.1, 2.1 0, 0
 2.1, 0 0))" and a gridSize of 1.

 If flag is set to not preserve topology, a topologically invalid polygon
 is emitted as expected: "POLYGON((0 0, 2 2, 2 0, 0 2, 0 0))"

 If flag is set to preserve topology, only one of the expected polygons is
 emitted: "POLYGON ((1 1, 2 2, 2 0, 1 1))"

 The expected result is a multi polygon: "MULTIPOLYGON (((1 1, 0 0, 0 2, 1
 1)), ((1 1, 2 2, 2 0, 1 1)))"
