    """Bends corners in a normpath.

    This decorator replaces corners in a normpath with bezier curves. There are two cases:
    - If the corner lies between two lines, _two_ bezier curves will be used
      that are highly optimized to look good (their curvature is to be zero at the ends
      and has to have zero derivative in the middle).
      Additionally, it can controlled by the softness-parameter.
    - If the corner lies between curves then _one_ bezier is used that is (except in some
      special cases) uniquely determined by the tangents and curvatures at its end-points.
      In some cases it is necessary to use only the absolute value of the curvature to avoid a
      cusp-shaped connection of the new bezier to the old path. In this case the use of
      "obeycurv=0" allows the sign of the curvature to switch.
    - The radius argument gives the arclength-distance of the corner to the points where the
      old path is cut and the beziers are inserted.
    - Path elements that are too short (shorter than the radius) are skipped
