Least exposed faces and relative interior #

This module proves the converse to Face.isLeastFaceAt_of_mem_relInterior. The proof works inside the affine span of a face. If the point is on the relative boundary, Hahn--Banach gives a nonconstant supporting functional there. After extension to the ambient space, a finite lexicographic perturbation of the functional exposing the original face produces a strictly smaller exposed face through the point, contradicting leastness.

A least exposed face containing q contains q in its relative interior.
