// Wang's formula gives the minimum number of evenly spaced (in the parametric
// sense) line segments that a bezier curve must be chopped into in order to
// guarantee all lines stay within a distance of "1/precision" pixels from the
// true curve. Its definition for a bezier curve of degree "n" is as follows:
//
//     maxLength = max([length(p[i+2] - 2p[i+1] + p[i]) for (0 <= i <= n-2)])
//     numParametricSegments = sqrt(maxLength * precision * n*(n - 1)/8)
