Bind Convex, address other improvements/fixes #50

Closed mjd3 closed 2 years ago

mjd3 commented 2 years ago

This PR hopefully helps to resolve several issues while adding bindings for the fcl.Convex type, which can result in faster collision checking and orders of magnitude faster min distance calculations for meshes that are convex. Additionally, using the fcl.Convex type can allow for fast/accurate signed distance calculations using convexity-based methods and nearest points are guaranteed to be on the object.
