[Gmsh] Create gmsh 2D.

[Keith Sloan]

Okay I am trying to add certain gmsh functionality to a FreeCAD work bench.

I can deal with FreeCAD Shapes by writing out a temp brep file and 
reading using gmsh.
Not very elegant but it works.

I am trying to also handle Meshes. Now there are no export options on a 
FreeCAD mesh .

I have access to Edges, Facets, Points

see print(dir())

I get the impression, maybe wrong that I have to create a surface with 
boundary curves and then add nodes and coordinates,
but not sure how I could create boundary curves given that I am trying 
to handle generic cases where I have no control
over the mesh I get passed.

Any ideas?
