CylindricalSurface Constructor (Vector, Vector, ListPoint, ListPoint)

Initializes a new instance of the CylindricalSurface class with given parameters. The boundaries are defined by the lateral boundaries (i.e. the points on the sides of the curved part of the cylinder). The side boundaries are defined by the two first points and the two last points of the lateral boundaries.
