- Factory module: generate 2D spherical meshes and points clouds

Feature improvements

- partitioning: copy AdditionalFamilyName and ReferenceState from BCs to the partitions
- compute_face_center : manage structured meshes
- merge_zones: allow wildcards in zone_paths
- isosurface: recover volumic GCs on surfacic tree (as BCs)
- transfer (part->dist): manage BC/BCDataSet created on partitions for structured meshes

Fixes
^^^^^
- convert_elements_to_ngon: prevent a memory error & better management of 2D meshes
- isosurface: improve robustness of edge reconstruction
- partitioning: fix split of structured GCs and BCDataSet
- merge_zone: fix a bug occurring when FamilyName appears under some BC_t nodes

Advanced users / devs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- use new pytest_parallel module
- transfer (part->dist): add user callback to reduce shared entities
