[GH-XXX] my subject. Closes bug: ST_AreaSpheroid returns wrong result sometimes #2603What changes were proposed in this PR?
ST_AreaSpheroid/Spheroid.areapreviously computed spheroidal area for aPolygonby feedinggeom.getCoordinates()into GeographicLibPolygonArea, which flattens exterior + interior rings and can yield incorrect results for polygons with holes / complex geometries.This PR computes area as exterior ring area minus the sum of interior ring areas (holes), by computing each ring independently.
