The dihedral range and mesh.quality's scaled Jacobian were both right:
they are computed by the same function on the same final corners (tet4
and tet10 give identical numbers), but a dihedral range does not bound
the corner scaled Jacobian. A needle has dihedral angles near 60 and 90
degrees and a nearly flat apex corner. Before 417c0c88 sphere-on-plate
at size 4 had dihedrals 36.3-141.6 and 106 needles below SJ 0.2 (min
0.095); now 36.0-137.6 and min SJ 0.351.
The mesher's report now carries min_scaled_jacobian so it cannot read
as all-good while needles remain.

The platform maths libraries' atan2 and cbrt differ in the last bits
between macOS and glibc, so the dihedral angles and the shape measure a
mesh reports did too. The crate's own versions use + - * / and sqrt
only (correctly rounded everywhere) and agree with the platform's to a
few ulps.

A five-node pyramid, the conforming transition between a hexahedron's face
and tetrahedra: Bedrosian's rational shape functions with a collapsed (Duffy)
Gauss rule, a certified Jacobian on the base square with exact volume, a
scaled Jacobian, C3D5 / CPYRAM / LS-DYNA degenerate solid, VTK_PYRAMID and
the binary mesh code 13. A distorted hex8-pyramid5-tet4 transition mesh
passes the patch test and uniaxial tension exactly.

`quality::conformity` checks a solid mesh for cracks: the free faces must
close up (every corner edge on exactly two), no two distinct nodes may
coincide, and every element edge has one mid-side node. The hex tests
assert it for every method, hex20 included, and the crank arm sample's
7274 hex20 is conforming (#260: the disjoint lines are a display issue).

The end-to-end demo met a raw-CDT sliver that the validity gate accepted (exactly positive) and
the solver refused. Now:
- One validity criterion, `fieldcraft_model::admissible_jacobian` (normalized Jacobian above
1e-12), used by the implicit solver (fem `positive_inverse`), the explicit tet4/hex8
kinematics and the mesh gate, which proves it on the whole element (tet4: the solvers' own
Jacobian; curved kinds: a Bernstein floor), so whatever passes the gate passes the solvers.
- CDT rounding repaired by flips on the rounded mesh (Diazzi et al. 2023 §5.1) instead of the
±2-ulp nudge.
- `fieldcraft-mesh::tet`: a mutable tetrahedral complex whose every change is a checked
replacement (positive and admissible tetrahedra, faces matched with opposite orientation) with
an exact undo log; edge removal (Klincsek), multi-face removal, Delaunay insertion with
boundary faces, edge collapse; a curvature- and thickness-graded size field; constrained
Delaunay refinement with encroachment splits; ODT smoothing; the Klingner–Shewchuk schedule;
boundary vertices moved onto the exact B-rep surfaces at the end; tet10 with mid-edge nodes on
the geometry.
- `mesh.tet.generate` gains size, order, quality, quality_target, curvature_angle, grading,
max_passes, max_points and reports the CDT's and the mesh's quality; `solve.probe` takes a set
and reports its largest von Mises stress.
- Oracle cases filleted-bracket-fillet-stress(-coarse): the fillet's peak von Mises stress on
tet10 meshes of 2k and 13.5k elements, 213.3 MPa (a four-level study stays within 1.8%); the
CDT cases keep the raw tetrahedralization.
- Corpus quality columns: all 20 valid parts mesh and pass the gate.

* Structured hex meshing: multi-level extrude and revolve, one-to-one sweep, mapped blocks (M5)
modelcraft_mesh::hex::hex_mesh meshes a face-tagged boundary surface with
hexahedra by the first structured method that fits: a straight or
rotational multi-level sweep (imprinted cross-section arrangement, cuts at
reflex corners, mapped/annulus/free regions), a one-to-one sweep through
rings of linking faces (least-squares affine layers with residual
correction), or a mapped logical cube (trivariate transfinite
interpolation). Interval assignment couples shared curves; boundary quads
carry B-rep face tags; the certified validity gate, a tiling check and a
fidelity check guard the output; hex20 mid-edge nodes go onto the faces.
Shape::face_surfaces exposes the analytic face surfaces; the corpus runner
gets a structured hex column.

* mesh.hex.generate: structured hex meshing as a command
Meshes one body, every body of the open design or an imported surface,
replaces the mesh, tags element faces with the B-rep faces (so sets by
geometry resolve) and reports per body the method, counts and quality.
The quality pass certifies each element once and feeds the validity gate
(quality::validity_gate_checks). Shape::size gives the cached body size
for defaults instead of a full measure.

* Hex: disk O-grids, convex interval cost, early size guard, hex20 corpus column
Smooth single-loop sections (cylinders, tori, vases) get a butterfly O-grid
instead of the free mesher; interval assignment raises counts by the
squared relative error so equal sides share increments evenly; a mesh far
beyond the element limit is refused before any work and mapped limits are
no longer swallowed. The corpus reports hex8 and hex20 quality.

command. The planned M6 octree entry moves to mesh.hex.octree (its icon
renamed with it). docs/features.md regenerated.

* Hex: simplify review fixes
Prepare each sweep frame's cross-section once (arrangement, cuts, fill)
and reuse it across refinement retries; candidate frames come from one
setup pass. Edge triangles come from the feature edges, layer counts go
through size::edge_divisions, sweep residual weights are computed once
per node, flux shape functions live on the stack, and the arrangement's
exact side test and distances serve the region probe. The engine takes
the boundary options mesh.tet.generate takes and names unnamed faces by
index like it; the corpus hex20 run reuses the winning method; the
mapped entry lists mesh.hex.generate too; the octree icon is redrawn
under its new id.

* Implicit solver: trusses, point masses, rotary inertia and springs on the DofLayout
Trusses declare their translations like solids; point masses, inertia and
springs ask the layout for the kinds they need at their nodes (translations,
rotations), and reference points they use get six degrees of freedom. The
matrix pattern takes rows for those points; dashpots are ignored with a
warning. Existing results are bit-identical (hash-checked).

* surface: simplify after review
- The weld distance travels with the mesh (SurfaceMesh::weld_distance, set by Shape::tessellate),
so every consumer welds a tessellation correctly without opting in.
- Exact tests are infallible on predicates::orient2d_projected (shared with generic_orient2d), and
compute each vertex's plane side once per pair with an early reject.
- One Box3 for the weld, the BVH and shells; a Half struct for edges; the weld's two lookups share
one loop, with chained grid cells; cached normals for feature edges; shared parameter helpers.
