Exporting scaled meshes

[23pointsNorth]

Describe the bug I've sketched up a scene and rigged it with motors/joints. (1) When exporting without [Apply mesh scale], the process succeeds, but with wrong model, as some of the meshes have non-uniform x,y,z, scales + the collision boxes don't get loaded in gazebo. (2) When exporting with selected checkbox on [Apply mesh scale], I am getting the following error:

Error: Python: Traceback (most recent call last):

RuntimeError: Error: Cannot apply to a multi user: Object "tmp_export_mesh.001", Mesh "mesh.001", aborting

Attempted to select the Object -> Relations -> Make Single User -> Object & Data & Materials, but it doesn't change the result. Is this Phobos related, or blender related?

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Take model. excavator_dummy_boom.zip
2. Click on export model with [Apply mesh scale] selected.
3. See error

Expected behavior For the exported dae meshes to contain the correct scale.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: [e.g. Ubuntu] Version 22.04]
• Blender version 3.3

Additional context (If they sound like bug and not user errors, can create issues)

1. Another interesting quirk -> if a joint is rotated by 90 deg, the collision body generated from Phobos of a box, approximated with a box is very off (create a collision for visual object boom in this model.)
2. Should all meshes be able to generate an inertial object?

@23pointsNorth Did you try @AlpenAalAlex PR?

Sorry, I have not. I can see the model is attached in the original comment, so potentially can be tested.
