Mesh layout and thickness adjustment are depend on base plane calculation. In this build, the base plane calculation could be limited to front plane, side plane, and so on, compare to without any limitation in previous implementation.
Uncombined mode could be used to avoid generation of trivial triangles. However, the result will be none-watertight if there is an uncombined mode component.
This commit add tips for buttons, to show what the function of the button.
Also, fixed a issue, there was no useful infos to tell user when the mesh was failed to generate, now user should see a warning icon with tips to show why the preview disappear.

Currently, only support "Normal" and "Inversion" modes, "Normal" means normal mesh union, "Inversion" means mesh diff, it behaves like subtract itself from the previous mesh.
The difference between tetrapod and generic is that, with tetrapod, all the bones need to be generated are know before mark, so if some marks are missing, there would be a message prompted; with generic, you can mark what ever marks as you wish, and the algorithm is try to create a spine and the limbs growing on the spine, that means, the generated skeleton would be some kind of creature.
Refactor outcome. Move processes of outcome to separated files, and leave the outcome class as clean as possible.
Normal export in glb format is been fixed.
Ambient occlusion baker is been temporarily removed.
Many source file name and data type are prefixed by "skeleton" before, now all are refactored.
The class MeshResultContext represents the outcome of mesh generation before, now we have material, pose and animation, so we just rename it as Outcome.
Besides adding the PBR material manager, this commit hide some unnecessary features such as toggle wireframes and toggle normal smooth.
Add a regenerate button to indicate mesh is generating by showing a spiner, user can click this button to regenerate if the final result is not good.
Please note that, we generate the texture map by default compared to before we only generate texture map when user export glTF result. Current uvunwrap library cann't handle bad mesh very well, so it will crash on the wires model.
Before, app crash on some machines as been reported in #15 and #16, and cannot easily be reproduced on other machines, such as a virtual box guest system, which make it very hard to trace the root cause.
Now, the offline render is totally removed from the code base, instead of offline-render to image then show the image, we can directly show the parts model in the parts tree using normal opengl widget, and the result looks better than before.
This is the second version of auto-rig, differing from the first version, the user should pick up a rig type, unless no rig will be generated. Currently, only supports Tetrapod without tail. Export as glTF format to test this feature.
This commit also achive better quality quads than before.
This feature could be useful for smooth one component and soften the seam of combination,
This commit also include a crash fix about incorrect use of CGAL.
This is useful for making hole surface. For example, without subtraction, it's difficult to make a bucket like mesh, now, you just need to copy and paste the nodes, invert it from the Parts List Panel Context Menu, then down scale and move up a little bit.
User can mark selected nodes as specified body location explictly. This will help the rigging step generating more reasonable result, also prepared for the future animation clip generation.
Use https://github.com/Thekla/thekla_atlas to generate the texture.
This commit still have some issues, some faces not satisfy thekla_atlas in some cases.
- Add texture preview widget.
- Fix single node black color issue.
- Export texture in .gltf file.
- Fix node order random issue in mesh generation.
