//  provides an iterator over the cells intersected by a line segment.
/*
 *        The `Triangulation_segment_traverser_3` iterates over the cells
 *        of a `Triangulation_3` by following a straight line segment \f$ st \f$.
 *
 *        This class is closely related to `Triangulation_3::locate(...)`.
 *        However, unlike this `locate(...)` method, all the cells traversed
 *        by the `Triangulation_segment_traverser_3` intersect the interior of the line
 *        segment \f$ st \f$.
 *
 *        Traversal starts from a cell containing \f$ s \f$ and it ends in a cell containing
 *        \f$ t \f$.
 *        If \f$ st \f$ is coplanar with a facet or collinear with an edge, at most one of the
 *        incident cells is traversed.
 *        If \f$ st \f$ intersects an edge or vertex, at most two incident cells are traversed:
 *        the cells intersected by \f$ st \f$ strictly in their interior.
 *
 *        If \f$ s \f$ lies on the convex hull, traversal starts in an incident cell inside
 *        the convex hull. Similarly, if \f$ t \f$ lies on the convex hull, traversal ends in
 *        an adjacent cell inside the convex hull.
 *
 *        Both \f$ s \f$ and \f$ t \f$ may lie outside the convex hull of the triangulation,
 *        but they must lie within the affine hull of the triangulation. In either case, the
 *        finite facet of any infinite cells traversed must intersect \f$ st \f$.
 *
 *        The traverser may be applied to any triangulation of dimension > 0.
 *        However, for triangulations of dimension 1, the functionality is somewhat trivial.
 *
 *        The traverser becomes invalid whenever the triangulation is changed.
 *
 *        \tparam Tr_ is the triangulation type to traverse.
