             Summary: Tessellator: Remove support for Steiner points
                 Key: LUCENE-8838
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-8838
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ignacio Vera


Tessellator has support from Steiner points which come from the original 
porting of the MapBox's earcut algorithm to Java. We are not using such points 
and therefore it would be better to remove it.

In addition, it actually introduces a bug when a polygon hole is a line with al 
coplanar points.  In some cases it can be reduced to a point and then treated 
as a Steiner points. This looks to be wrong and on those cases we should throw 
an error.
