Added some comments,
some methods were made inline, tiny methods moved to the header as inline,
dynamic allocation replaced with std:: containers,
changed some loops to the condensed C++11 syntax.

The Clipper library has difficulties processing overlapping polygons.
Namely, the function Clipper::JoinCommonEdges() has potentially a terrible time complexity if the output
of the operation is of the PolyTree type.
This function implmenets a following workaround:
1) Peform the Clipper operation with the output to Paths. This method handles overlaps in a reasonable time.
2) Run Clipper Union once again to extract the PolyTree from the result of 1).
New methods: has_multiple_patches(), number_of_patches()
Improved constness of file access methods.
Reduced some memory allocations costs.
Fixed some crashes of the cut() method on invalid meshes, Slic3r crashes on the unstable triangulation now.
Documented.
unify positive and negative zeros in stl_check_facets_exact() and stl_check_facets_nearby()
New function stl_transform() by a 3x4 matrix.
Some constness improvements.
Having the expat parser inside the Slic3r source base makes life easier
on non-Linux systems and it also allows us to configure the Expat
parser for maximum performance by disabling all unneeded features.

The way it works now is following:
Slic3r will add some negative penalty to all perimeter points near the last seam.
Once the perimeter point with minimum penalty is found, its penalty is compared
to a point closest to the last seam. If the penalty of the point
closest to the last seam is nearly as good as the minimum penalty,
the point closest to the last seam is picked instead. This heuristics
will hide the seams into corners if possible, but if not possible, it will
strive to align the seams precisely.
