[Gmsh] Blender & Gmsh

[Dmitrijs Ledkovs]

Hello Rich!

Thanks this was exactly what I was looking for!!!

I'll play around with it, ideally i want to get multiple volumes
out-of "blender -> stl -> merge in geo" and it would be amazing if I
had access to all of the geometry nodes, triagles, lines etc.

But overall this is a great start!
