2D Semi-Implicit Euler

2D formulation of the semi-implicit euler. A symplectic first-order integrator for mechanics.

This is the 2d variant of the Semi-Implicit Euler. Semi-implicit (symplectic) Euler updates velocity before position, conserving energy well over long runs — the default for real-time particle and rigid-body physics.
