Doc for Rectangle2D.intersect and similar methods should specify whether the
params must be distinct or not. E.g. is this legal:

Rectangle.intersect(oldRect, newRect, newRect);

The methods Rectangle2D.intersect() and Rectangle2D.union() should state that
the 'dest' parameter may be the same object as the 'src1' or 'src2' parameter.

E.g. it should state that "Rectangle2D.intersect(r1, r2, r2)" is legal. This
saves the user from having to create a 3rd rectangle to store the result.

Note that CubicCurve2D.subdivide and QuadCurve2D.subdivide correctly state that
"Either or both of the left and right arrays may be ... a reference to the same
array as the src array." I am requesting that Rectangle2D do something similar.
