isWellDefined(Cone) -- Checks whether a polyhedral object is well-defined.

Description

This method checks whether all description given and computed for a polyhedral object yield the same.

Furthermore, for a fan or polyhedral complex, it will check whether the intersection of two subobjects always yields a face.

This method can be very expensive computationally.
