with their original names. Using weird shorthands makes the code
unreadable for anyone but the original author.

TriangleMesh newly only holds indexed_triangle_set and
TriangleMeshStats. TriangleMeshStats contains an excerpt of stl_stats.
TriangleMeshStats are updated when initializing with indexed_triangle_set.
Admesh triangle mesh fixing is newly only used when loading an STL.
AMF / 3MF / OBJ file formats are already indexed triangle sets, thus
they are no more converted to admesh stl_file format, nor fixed
through admesh repair machinery. When importing AMF / 3MF / OBJ files,
volume is calculated and if negative, all faces are flipped. Also
a bounding box and number of open edges is calculated.
Implemented its_number_of_patches(), its_num_open_edges()
Optimized its_split(), its_is_splittable() using a visitor pattern.
Reworked QHull integration into TriangleMesh:
1) Face normals were not right.
2) Indexed triangle set is newly emitted instead of duplicating
vertices for each face.
Fixed cut_mesh(): Orient the triangulated faces correctly.
stl_stats are newly only accessed by TriangleMesh::stats(),
most of the direct access to TriangleMesh::stl is gone with the exception
of parsing input files (3MF, AMF, obj).
Renamed its_create_neighbors_index() / its_create_neighbors_index_par() to its_face_neighbors() / its_face_neighbors_par().
New variant of its_face_edge_ids() to create edge IDs from face neighbors.
Fixed some incorrect use of _NDEBUG, it should be NDEBUG.
PrintObject::slice_support_volumes() returns newly Polygons, which are cheaper than ExPolygons.
Updated SeamPlacer and SupportMaterial to use regions defined as Polygons, not ExPolygons.
TriangleSelector::get_facets_strict() returning a patch with T-joints retriangulated.
New slice_mesh_slabs() - slicing projections of a triangle patch into top / bottom layers of slices, for MMU top / bottom segmentation.
TriangleMeshSlicer - use 64 mutexes instead of one when scattering sliced triangles into layers. This makes a big difference on modern many core desktop computers.
When applying MM segmented regions to input regions, the split regions are now re-merged with 10x higher positive offset epsilon to avoid creating gaps.
When testing for existence of paint-on supports or seam, use a more efficient has_facets() test, which does not deserialize into the expensive TriangleSelector tree structure.
GLIndexedVertexArray newly uses Eigen::AlignedBox<float, 3> for efficiency instead of our double based BoundingBoxf3.
Improved MMU painting refresh speed by optimizing generation of the vertex buffers.
Refactored MMU segmentation - projection of painted surfaces from top / bottom.
1) Parallelized.
2) Using the new slice_mesh_slabs() instead of projecting one triangle by the other and merging them with Clipper.
* Add Linux openvdb integration
* Add Mac openvdb integration and enable in ALL
* Create openvdb sandbox to test integration.
* Additional fixes in the patches
* Remove slabasebed sandbox as it has no relevance now
* Provide FindOpenVDB module and fix build issues
