  Description:
    Search for a derivatitive, tangent, or curvature

  Parameters:

    t0 - [in] Search begins at t0. If there is a discontinuity
              at t0, it will be ignored.  This makes it 
              possible to repeatedly call GetNextDiscontinuity
              and step through the discontinuities.

              will be ingored unless c is a locus discontinuity
              type and t1 is at the start or end of the curve.
    t - [out] if a discontinuity is found, then *t reports the
          parameter at the discontinuity.
    hint - [in/out] if GetNextDiscontinuity will be called 
       repeatedly, passing a "hint" with initial value *hint=0
       will increase the speed of the search.       
    dtype - [out] if not nullptr, *dtype reports the kind of 
        discontinuity found at *t.  A value of 1 means the first 
        derivative or unit tangent was discontinuous.  A value 
        of 2 means the second derivative or curvature was 
        discontinuous.  A value of 0 means teh curve is not
        closed, a locus discontinuity test was applied, and
        t1 is at the start of end of the curve.
        If 'c', the type of continuity to test for 
        is ON::continuity::Gsmooth_continuous and the curvature changes 
        from curved to 0 or 0 to curved and there is no

    cos_angle_tolerance - [in] default = cos(1 degree) Used only
        when c is ON::continuity::G1_continuous or ON::continuity::G2_continuous.  If the
        cosine of the angle between two tangent vectors is 
        <= cos_angle_tolerance, then a G1 discontinuity is reported.
    curvature_tolerance - [in] (default = ON_SQRT_EPSILON) Used 
        only when c is ON::continuity::G2_continuous.  If K0 and K1 are 
        curvatures evaluated from above and below and 
        |K0 - K1| > curvature_tolerance, then a curvature 
        discontinuity is reported.

      true if a parametric discontinuity was found strictly 
      between t0 and t1. Note well that all curves are
