Return values:

i_line_point1_edge	A number [0-5] indicating which edge of the two triangles point1 of i_line lies on. 0 indicates [a_p1,a_p2], 1 - [a_p2,a_p3], 2 - [a_p3,a_p1], 3 - [b_p1,b_p2], 4 - [b_p2,b_p3], 5 - [b_p3,b_p1]
i_line_point2_edge.	As i_line_point1_edge, but for the other end of the intersection.

Note:: if i_line_point1_edge==i_line_point2_edge, this indicates that due to coplanarity, or some other corner case, there were more than two edges involved in the intersection boundaries. The returned edge is one of those edges.
