This method assumes three things:
It simply creates a plane from the first three points of the polygon, and projects the rest of the polygon onto it. Then, EarCut can triangulate the polygon by the usual method for 2D.
This will enable plotting 3D polygons in GLMakie and WGLMakie with no extra steps, CairoMakie needs some more fixes it seems. But we're getting there!
Fixes MakieOrg/Makie.jl#4015, and the other issue someone raised about a set of polygons in 3D that I can't find anymore.
Probably needs tests, but not sure what a good test suite would be? Ideas appreciated :)
