Commit:98b6050e8369bfac26c57d7e6dee847ba2e0c074
Message:Fix our trigonometry: the z0 inclination is expressed as a tangent, not a sine.

- solidify/project.c (read_face_data, save_face_data): fx/fy represent a
tangent, not a sine
- solidify/overlap.c (merge_matrix): corrected shrinkage formula to use
tangent instead of sine
