jyviko 68a217d980 Reference tests: the loft case is analytic, SolidCraft's correspondence with its closed form
17-loft's expected values were FreeCAD's (OpenCASCADE's Part.makeLoft), which runs each side of
the square to its quarter of the circle at uniform angle (arc length). That correspondence has
no exact rational B-spline form, and SolidCraft keeps its surfaces exact: its ruled loft runs
each side to one rational quarter of the circle's B-spline by their own parameters, 35080.7251
mm^3, 0.13% less (the oracle failed on volume and the second moments). The owner chose this
correspondence. The case is now worked out in tools/oracle-analytic/cases_basic.py: the section
area is quadratic in t with the loops' mixed area, so volume and centroid are closed forms of it
(the mixed area and the wall area by Gauss-Legendre on the exact rational arcs); its note says
why it differs from OpenCASCADE and gives that volume, and its `compare` leaves out the surface
check against OpenCASCADE's reference.stl. All its checks pass.
