Simplify an outline object by removing verticies bordering short edges while not encroaching on any of the outline. At present, this is done by finding concave vertices. It is safe to remove these, at the expense of increasing the area a bit.
simplify.outline(o, min.frac.length = 0.001, plot = FALSE)
