The constraints are linear edges, represented by the Segment class. The
method ConformingDelaunayTriangulator.setConstraints sets them for use in
building the triangulation.
Note that the constraints are not ultimately representing exactly in the
triangulation. This is explained in the CDT Javadoc.
