[Gmsh] separate boundary layer settings

[Felix Salazar]

Based on the .geo file, what you're seeing on the top and bottom surfaces
is due to the extrusions. The combination of these plus the BL fields
creates more layers than the 5 specified in the extrusions.

Try disabling (commenting) either the extrude or the BL field and remesh.

Around the cylinder, there's a BL. You have smaller quads there. If you
want finer control, try using an O-grid mesh

similar to the one on the previous link.
