Default Calculate the Circumference of an ellipse

There is not a standard formula for this. Someone may know of one available
as a add in.

Depending on the accuracy desired this can get fairly involved

This reference give a fairly good sysopsis of the issue, and does have a
couple for simplier formulas that will get you close.
