/**
 * Splits given shape into {@link Polyline} segments of given (max) arc length.
 * Returns a {@link Group} of shapes/polylines.
 *
 * @remarks
 * If the shape has a `__samples` attribute, it will be removed in the result to
 * avoid recursive application.
 *
 * Currently only implemented for:
 *
 * - {@link Group}
 * - {@link Polyline}
 *
 * Other shape types will be attempted to be auto-converted via
 * {@link asPolyline} first. Only shapes with a single boundary are supported.
 *
 * Nested groups are NOT supported. Groups are processing their child shapes and
 * forming new child groups of given max. arc lengths and potentially splitting
 * shapes if they don't fit within the current subgroup...
 *
 * @example
 * ```ts
 * import { circle, group, inscribedSquare, splitArcLength } from "@thi.ng/geom";
 *
 * // circle (to be sampled as octagon)
 * const a = circle(100, { stroke: "red", __samples: 8 });
 *
 * // inner square of circle
 * const b = inscribedSquare(a, { stroke: "blue" });
 *
 * // process as group, split/partition into subgroups of arclength max. 200
 * splitArcLength(group({}, [a, b]), 200);
 * ```
 *
