Description:
  An ON_Arc is a subcurve of 3d circle. 
Details:
  The curve is parameterized by an angle expressed in radians.   For an IsValid() arc 
  the total subtended angle   AngleRadians() = Domain()(1) - Domain()(0) must satisfy
        0< AngleRadians() <2*Pi .
  
  The parameterization of the ON_Arc is inherited from the ON_Circle it is derived from.
  In particular
       t -> center + cos(t)*radius*xaxis + sin(t)*radius*yaxis  
  where xaxis and yaxis, (part of ON_Circle::m_plane) form an othonormal frame of the plane 
  containing the circle.
