Tests whether the arc a is -monotone, i.e. the intersection of
any meridian anchored at the poles sphere and the arc a
is reduced to at most one point in general, and two points if a pole of sphere is an endpoint of the arc.
Note that a bipolar circle has no such arcs.
Precondition: | a lies on sphere, and the supporting circle of a is not bipolar. |
