Class
    Foam::pointSmoothers::geometricElementTransformPointSmoother

Description
    Geometric Element Transformation Method (GETMe) point smoother. Points are
    moved in a direction normal to the face of the dual element. This tends to
    orthogonalise elements. This method can "push" as well as "pull".

    The original references for this method only formulate it for a limited
    variety of specific polyhedra. This version is written for arbitrary
    polyhedra, and most closely follows the following reference:

    \verbatim
        "Fast smoothing of mixed volume meshes based on the effective geometric
        element transformation method"
        Dimitris Vartziotis, Joachim Wipper,
        Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 201-204 (2012) 65-81
    \endverbatim

    This implementation does not include the various specific measures employed
    in the referred article to improve the quality of types of irregular
    polyhedra. It also does not use the same quality criteria as these are only
    suitable for cell vertices with exactly three connecting edges.
