Description

A new EdgeRefinement(pred) to speed up the refinement of general Polygonal Meshes.

In this method, edges of the mesh are refined if the predicate holds true. By setting pred(e) = length(e) > maxlen(), we can refine the mesh adaptively for accurate visualization, without exploding the number of elements.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing refinement methods in Meshes.jl, understand how edges are traversed and refined. Implement a new function `EdgeRefinement(pred)` that refines edges where the predicate holds true. Write tests and ensure it integrates with the existing codebase.
