Bug in ST_Area function with use_spheroid=false

[azakh]

ST_Area fails to calculate the area of the geography polygon with one inner ring, with use_spheroid=false:

SELECT ST_Area(
'POLYGON(
  (
    -111.772 33.307,
    -111.772 33.304,
    -111.783 33.304,
    -111.783 33.307,
    -111.772 33.307
  ),
  (
    -111.781442 33.304825,
    -111.776964 33.3048,
    -111.773047 33.304778,
    -111.773177 33.306408,
    -111.781442 33.304825
  )
)
'::geography, false);

The result is:

ERROR:  lwgeom_area_spher(oid) returned area < 0.0

use_spheroid=true version works and gives 270218.45392724127, but I would expect the on-the-sphere version also to work.

The polygon seems to be correct, though it has almost flat angle at the (-111.776964 33.3048) vertex. Let's call the vertex X.

If X is removed then ST_Area is 270337.25718276866.

If we retain X but make a cyclic shift of the inner ring: AXBCA ⇒ XBCAX, then the function succeeds but gives 91737.85992092389 which is quite different from the correct value.

Let's give small amends to the X latitude with AXBCA vertex order:
X ⇒ (-111.776964 (33.3048 + amend)).

Monotonous area growth is expected but oscillating behaviour alternating with ERRORs is observed.
