Function / pattern issues. Povr supertoroid parametric.

Function / pattern issues. Povr surface normal{} like dents.

I had plans to get together another povr tar ball for year end, but I 
started too many work threads to tie them off in time. Instead a list of 
the current inbuilt functions (less the specials like pattern / 
f_pattern) since I've not posted many updates on this front of late.

The image attached uses a new f_radial_tubes function pulled out of the 
old f_polytubes so it's not hard wired to fourth order uni-variate 
polynomials. The tubes in this case follow an f_sphere. A little like a 
Holiday ornament, perhaps.
