We add the new option -Lindexfile to allow us to bypass the Delauney calculation and reuse these precomputed nodes instead, say, for gridding via -R -I -G. The node file may come from a prior run of triangulate or from an external program (e.g., finite elements or similar).

Also this option, for both triangulate and contour acquires a new modifier +b that allows these modules to read the indexfile via binary i/o in the same format as the main table input. This is necessary to speed up processing for very large triangulation networks.

Note: I am aware @joa-quim will tell me to self-approve but I am going old-school here.

Not old-school (there you'd do it). Middle-school.

OK, kindergarten I guess.
