Introduction

The given face is split along specified constant u or v parameter line.
The parameter line is defined by U or V direction 'param_dir' argument
and 'param' value.

As a result new edges and faces may be created. The new edges are returned
in new_edges, and the number of them in n_new_edges.  The new edges may
split the face into several faces. The new faces are returned in new_faces
and the number of them in n_new_faces. If new faces are created, the old
face will lie on the right of one of the new edges, which will all go in the
direction of the parameter line.

If new_edges or new_faces  arguments are set to NULL then only the number
of new edges and/or faces will be returned.

If given parameter line lies outside or coincident with face boundary, no
new edges or faces will be created and error 'PK_ERROR_not_on_face' will
be raised.
