New description:

 The .polar() method of the Polyhedron class is incorrect, currently it
 returns the inversion of the correct answer.  Thanks to sarah-marie
 belcastro for pointing this out.

 Another bugfix/improvement is adding support for negation, which inverts
 polyhedra.  Implementing this revealed that scalar multiplication by
 negative numbers gave incorrect answers for polyhedra with rays.

 Finally this adds a convenience function for obtained faces in terms of
 vertex and inequality indices.
