most of these issues are fallout from the conversion of the spline
class from a moments (second derivative) based approach to hermite
base functions:
- the second and third derivatives where incorrect, and the third
derivative was not available in the public interface.
- The unit test did not check the derivatives
- The coefficients for the monomial basis were off by the factors
stemming from the derivatives
- The intersectIntervall_() method used std::max() instead of
std::min() at one place and still added the base offset for the x
values as indicated by Stoer
