#2897 Updating circle, ellipse, line-arc, and sector to use smarter approximations

[lemmingapex]

Summary

See the details and linked post in #2897

The focus of this work is to update the turf.circle(...) to use a smarter regular polygon approximation. Related packages have also been updated to use more accurate approximations including ellipse, line-arc, and sector. These packages should be as consistent with each other as they are in version 7.2.0.

Please let me know if you find any issues or have any questions, I would be happy to assist if I can. Thanks for your help.
