The corpus runs mesh.hex.octree's mesher on every part at 1/25 of its diagonal (the size of
the structured hex column) and reports hexahedra, the smallest and mean scaled Jacobian, the
mesh volume against SolidCraft's and the time; a part it cannot mesh gets the reason. The
column caps the elements at 500 000 so a part whose grid explodes is refused in seconds.
Loaded parts carry their bounding-box diagonal for the stages. docs/meshing/corpus.md
regenerated: 15 of 21 parts mesh, including filleted-bracket, rounded-box, sphere-on-plate
and the analytic sphere.

filleted-bracket-blocks splits the bracket with SolidCraft's Split Body
into three slabs across its width, the fillet corner halved along its
diagonal and a four-cell O-grid round each hole; the corpus runner meshes
partitioned parts as one conforming block mesh. A heavy test clamps the
upright, loads the foot and checks hex8 and hex20 converge (hex20 tip
deflection within 0.1 % of a fine tet10 solution). Roadmap M5:
conforming interfaces done.

The demo used the corpus I-beam, which is extruded along z and so stood
upright. A new corpus part, cantilever-i-beam, is the same section on the
YZ plane extruded along x, web upright: a sweep along a horizontal axis
for the meshers, and a cantilever that bends downward on screen. The
i-beam part is unchanged (its corpus row and the meshing tests keep it).
The demo clamps it at x = 0 and loads the free end with 1000 N in -z
through a kinematic coupling, and now checks the solution against beam
theory and stops when it is off: tip deflection (bending plus shear)
within 3 %, root bending stress (stress_xx along the top flange,
extrapolated to the root, nodes from the Abaqus deck) within 2 %.
docs/meshing/corpus.md regenerated with the new part.

* Structured hex meshing: multi-level extrude and revolve, one-to-one sweep, mapped blocks (M5)
modelcraft_mesh::hex::hex_mesh meshes a face-tagged boundary surface with
hexahedra by the first structured method that fits: a straight or
rotational multi-level sweep (imprinted cross-section arrangement, cuts at
reflex corners, mapped/annulus/free regions), a one-to-one sweep through
rings of linking faces (least-squares affine layers with residual
correction), or a mapped logical cube (trivariate transfinite
interpolation). Interval assignment couples shared curves; boundary quads
carry B-rep face tags; the certified validity gate, a tiling check and a
fidelity check guard the output; hex20 mid-edge nodes go onto the faces.
Shape::face_surfaces exposes the analytic face surfaces; the corpus runner
gets a structured hex column.

* mesh.hex.generate: structured hex meshing as a command
Meshes one body, every body of the open design or an imported surface,
replaces the mesh, tags element faces with the B-rep faces (so sets by
geometry resolve) and reports per body the method, counts and quality.
The quality pass certifies each element once and feeds the validity gate
(quality::validity_gate_checks). Shape::size gives the cached body size
for defaults instead of a full measure.

* Hex: disk O-grids, convex interval cost, early size guard, hex20 corpus column
Smooth single-loop sections (cylinders, tori, vases) get a butterfly O-grid
instead of the free mesher; interval assignment raises counts by the
squared relative error so equal sides share increments evenly; a mesh far
beyond the element limit is refused before any work and mapped limits are
no longer swallowed. The corpus reports hex8 and hex20 quality.

* Catalogue: structured hex commands ready (mesh.hex.sweep, mesh.hex.mapped, mesh.hex.generate)
mesh.hex.sweep and mesh.hex.mapped run mesh.hex.generate with the sweeping
methods or the mapped one; mesh.hex.generate is the sweep entry's related
command. The planned M6 octree entry moves to mesh.hex.octree (its icon
renamed with it). docs/features.md regenerated.

* Hex: simplify review fixes
Prepare each sweep frame's cross-section once (arrangement, cuts, fill)
and reuse it across refinement retries; candidate frames come from one
setup pass. Edge triangles come from the feature edges, layer counts go
through size::edge_divisions, sweep residual weights are computed once
per node, flux shape functions live on the stack, and the arrangement's
exact side test and distances serve the region probe. The engine takes
the boundary options mesh.tet.generate takes and names unnamed faces by
index like it; the corpus hex20 run reuses the winning method; the
mapped entry lists mesh.hex.generate too; the octree icon is redrawn
under its new id.

* surface: weld at an absolute distance too; the engine welds CAD tessellations at twice SolidCraft's linear tolerance
Faces of a SolidCraft tessellation carry their own copies of shared boundary points, which agree
only to within the kernel's tolerance (up to ~2e-6 mm on the test corpus).

* surface: simplify after review
- The weld distance travels with the mesh (SurfaceMesh::weld_distance, set by Shape::tessellate),
so every consumer welds a tessellation correctly without opting in.
- Exact tests are infallible on predicates::orient2d_projected (shared with generic_orient2d), and
compute each vertex's plane side once per pair with an early reject.
- One Box3 for the weld, the BVH and shells; a Half struct for edges; the weld's two lookups share
one loop, with chained grid cells; cached normals for feature edges; shared parameter helpers.
