[ODE] solving penetrations "statically"

[Nguyen Binh]

You can't do that if your nonpenetration constraint equations are expressed
in velocity like ODE. You always have some drift in position.
Search for paper by David Stewart and Jeff Trinkle to see how to use
position constraint.
But keep in mind that it can only solve 90% of the case. The linearization
of colliding surfaces brings back penetration for concave curve.
