Bruno, what is the use of this?? Of course it will leak memory!!

I renamed that to chainedCylinder. Please do not specify default values
for begin, end and radius -- utils.{sphere,facet,...} don't do it
either, it is meaningless. Without defaults, the user is required to
specify one himself/herself by python syntax, rather than getting an
unexpected thing.

FYI MinkowskI (I changed that at a few places, but not everywhere)
