   * MeshTransformation is the user-level interface for mesh filters, i.e.,
   * objects that take an input mesh and produce a new mesh. Examples
   * of filter operations are refinement, load balancing,
   * and extrusion from 2D to 3D. 
   *
   * <h4> Example: </h4> extrude a 2D mesh into 2D
   * \code
   * // create a 2D mesh 
   * MeshType meshType = new BasicSimplicialMeshType();
   * MeshSource mesher = new PartitionedRectangleMesher(0.0, 1.0, 10, 1,
   *                                                    0.0, 1.0, 10, 1,
   *                                                    meshType);
   * Mesh mesh2D = mesher.getMesh();
   * // create a filter for extruding 2 levels between z=0.0 and z=0.2
   * MeshTransformation extruder = new ExtrusionMeshTransformation(0.0, 0.2, 2);
   * // perform the extrusion
   * Mesh mesh3D = extruder.apply(mesh2D);
