`PyVista`_ accessors for `Gmsh`_ to generate 3D finite element mesh.

The motivation is that PyVista is the solution to the following.

Overview of Gmsh (https://gmsh.info/doc/texinfo/gmsh.html)

… and what Gmsh is not so good at
Here are some known weaknesses of Gmsh:

* Gmsh is not a multi-bloc mesh generator: all meshes produced by Gmsh are conforming in the sense of finite element meshes;
* Gmsh’s graphical user interface is only exposing a limited number of the available features, and many aspects of the interface could be enhanced (especially manipulators).
* Your complaints about Gmsh here :-)
