Add a "boolean coplanar curves" node in GN

boolean curves example.png

In order to easily create shapes from overlapping areas made with coplanar closed curves.

AFAIK, there is no way to do it easily, even in classical modelling (even for the example picture I used a lot of steps). Would help a lot for fonts with overlapping areas as well (now those fonts are near impossible to properly convert to 3D).

This would be cool to just add this node, but ideally we should refine the concept of 2D curves in general first. At least have a standard way to present 2D curve nodes. For example do we specify a projection plane ? Fill curve right now don't have that and it feels missing... This would make space for all the cool 2D algorithms. I think it was mentioned in recent meeting but no design is there yet.
