#3112: Add a new function to determine if a geometry will be accepted by routines
not handling curve geometries

 Reporter:  aaime        |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  enhancement  |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium       |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.1.8
Component:  postgis      |    Version:  2.1.x
 Keywords:               |
-------------------------+---------------------------
 ST_HasArc almost does the job, but will return "false" on a curve geometry
 that does not contain any circular segment (e.g., a compound curve that
 only contains straight segments).

 Please add a new function to determine if a geometry is safe to use with
 "non curve aware" functions (regardless of its circular segment contents)
