Engine: the half crank extrudes in blocks through mesh.hex.generate and mesh.cells

The extrusion's automatic cross-section blocks reach both commands; the
half crank arm, cut only on its symmetry plane, meshes all-structured
(sJ >= 0.37) with no seeds either way, and mesh.hex.generate's
description says so.
