intersectRaySphere

Test whether the ray with the given <code>origin</code> and normalized direction <code>dir</code> intersects the sphere with the given <code>center</code> and square radius <code>radiusSquared</code>, and store the values of the parameter <i>t</i> in the ray equation <i>p(t) = origin + t * dir</i> for both points (near and far) of intersections into the given <code>result</code> vector. <p> This method returns <code>true</code> for a ray whose origin lies inside the sphere. <p> Reference: <a href="http://www.scratchapixel.com/lessons/3d-basic-rendering/minimal-ray-tracer-rendering-simple-shapes/ray-sphere-intersection">http://www.scratchapixel.com/</a>

@param origin the ray's origin @param dir the ray's normalized direction @param center the sphere's center @param radiusSquared the sphere radius squared @param result a vector that will contain the values of the parameter <i>t</i> in the ray equation <i>p(t) = origin + t * dir</i> for both points (near, far) of intersections with the sphere @return <code>true</code> if the ray intersects the sphere; <code>false</code> otherwise
