Render bug with edge-on rings #574

Another 1.7 render bug, this one discovered by nussun on the Discord server. Planets with perfectly edge-on rings (no Obliquity) don't render correctly - they "flicker".

Very simple addon demonstrating this bug

I lower this bug priority as real planets unlikely have Inclination 0, and Inclination 0.1 can be used as a workaround.
