decomposes missing edges from open facets of a solid

Description

This procedure is required after find open facets using CLmissingedgesVLFL (edges are only used in one direction), that links the open edges to contours. If there exist a contour that is not planar, this procedure decomposes the 3D contours in a set of planar contours by adding edges without(!) adding vertex points. So, this procedure decomposes one contours into several contours that have the same normal vector.The function works quite well and stable.
