Add Snell's Law refraction algorithm (#7150)

* Add Snell's Law implementation for refraction angle

* Add tests for Snell's Law calculations

* Update documentation with reference link to Snell's Law

Added a reference link to Snell's Law in the documentation.

* Prevent instantiation of SnellLaw class

Make SnellLaw class non-instantiable by adding a private constructor.

* Rename SnellsLawTest to SnellLawTest

* Refactor SnellLawTest for clarity and accuracy

* Rename SnellsLaw.java to SnellLaw.java

* Refactor SnellLawTest with additional assertions

* Refactor SnellLaw class constructor and error handling

Refactor SnellLaw constructor and error message formatting.

* Fix missing newline at end of SnellLawTest.java

Ensure that the SnellLawTest class has a newline at the end of the file.

* Simplify assertions in SnellLawTest

* Simplify exception throwing for total internal reflection
