-- Creates N points randomly distributed arround the polygon
--
-- @param g - the geometry to be turned in to points
--
-- @param no_points - the number of points to generate
--
-- @params max_iter_per_point - the function generates points in the polygon's bounding box
-- and discards points which don't lie in the polygon. max_iter_per_point specifies how many
-- misses per point the funciton accepts before giving up.
--
-- Returns: Multipoint with the requested points
