Summary	0001938: intersectWithLine has problems with penta- and hexa-prism
Description	The problem is that both cell types use vtkPolygon to check intersection with the pentagons and hexagons of the cell. But vtkPolygon assumes the Polygon is perfectly planar, which is far from the reality of industrial-size meshes. We propose to change the intersection checks with vtkPolygon with 2 checks against vtkQuad (which already handles non-planar quads) and 1 vtkQuad+vtktriangle checks for the pentagon. source code and Tcl test follow in the attachment.
