And use it in the test.

This patch uses the new 'constexpr' macro.  Hence it is C++11 only.

Which highlights the fact that the code was hacky in the first place:
These type conversion should not be necessary.  Will be fixed soon.

restrict testing to point that are closer than 0.5*M_PI apart.  That's a hacky way to avoid degenerate cases

Use the polarization identity from Absil, Mahony, Sepulchre (page 107) to compute an fd approximation of the Riemannian Hessian

Make the space to be tested a parameter.  Unlike originally envisioned this test should not just test the UnitVector class
