 Currently there is no way to retrieve the original arc definition from
 SE_LineBuffer class but only the arc in the tessellated form.

 Sometimes the client needs to distinguish between circular arcs and
 ellitical arcs or it needs to reconstruct the geometry. Although possible
 to use the tessellated arc to accomplish this, it is both inconvenient and
 error prone from accuracy standpoint.

 The solution is to add a public method to SE_LineBuffer which returns the
 arc definition. This will complement xf_buffer() method.
