This function attempts to repair a face, i.e. make it valid. The options
structure determines which types of repair are attempted.

This function does not support facet geometry [NF]


Specific Errors:
    PK_ERROR_su_self_intersect      self-intersecting region lies in face


This function is primarily intended for use when a model is being imported into
Parasolid via a data exchange format.

Before this function is called, PK_EDGE_repair (with option 'ensure_on_surfs')
must be called on all the edges of the face.

At present there are two types of repair provided: splitting the face to remove
G1 discontinuities in the surface, and splitting the face to remove areas of
surface self-intersection which lie outside the face.

Tracking information will be returned in 'tracking'. This is only returned if
the face is split, in which case there will be one track record recording the
split.

See Repairing the part for more information.
