/**
 * @file
 * @brief Implementation of [Jarvis’s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gift_wrapping_algorithm) algorithm.
 *
 * @details
 * Given a set of points in the plane. the convex hull of the set
 * is the smallest convex polygon that contains all the points of it.
 *
 * ### Algorithm
 * The idea of Jarvis’s Algorithm is simple, we start from the leftmost point
 * (or point with minimum x coordinate value) and we
 * keep wrapping points in counterclockwise direction.
 *
 * The idea is to use orientation() here. Next point is selected as the
 * point that beats all other points at counterclockwise orientation, i.e.,
 * next point is q if for any other point r,
 * we have “orientation(p, q, r) = counterclockwise”.
 *
 * For Example,
 * If points = {{0, 3}, {2, 2}, {1, 1}, {2, 1},
                      {3, 0}, {0, 0}, {3, 3}};
 *
 * then the convex hull is
 * (0, 3), (0, 0), (3, 0), (3, 3)
