Implement solid angle measure for two-dimensional simplicial cones #33656

@allisonfitisone

Description

@allisonfitisone

Implement the solid angle measure (the plane angle) of a two-dimensional cone, using the dot-product (trigonometry) formula.

For example, the solid angle of the first orthant solid_angle_simplicial_2d([[0,1],[1,0]])
is 1/4.

Later we will add methods for three-dimensional and higher-dimensional cones.
