I only tried a single outer ring in both directions, and it didn't
revert them. Maybe it only reverts if if outer and inner ring have the

It would be fairly trivial to move some of the code to sf - at a
performance penalty if we'd do the check always, like sp does.

It's not part of the rwinlib collection at https://github.com/rwinlib ;
I'll bring it up with Jeroen next time I see him. lwgeom has more good
things than what sf uses.
