Inner or outer border of a cut-out in the wing

The border is a section of the wing, built like a border of the control surface itself: its plane runs through two points of the chord surface of the component segment and contains the normal of the component segment. <etaLE> and <etaTE> give the spanwise position of these two points; their chordwise positions are those of the corresponding border of the control surface.

<ribDefinitionUID> and <ribNumber> put the border on a rib instead: the border is then the mid surface of that rib, <ribNumber> counting the ribs of the referenced rib definition from 1.

Without <innerBorder> and <outerBorder> the cut-out ends at the borders of the control surface.
