/// Merges two polygons, a subject and a clip with the specified operation. Polygons may not be

/// Warning: May yield incorrect results or even crash if polygons contain collinear points.

/// <param name="subject">The subject polygon.</param>

/// <param name="error">The error generated (if any)</param>
/// <returns>A list of closed polygons, which make up the result of the clipping operation.
