// Cuts a scenery's ground into Cesium Quantized Mesh tiles.
//
// The source is already a mesh, so this does not triangulate anything: it cuts the triangles it
// is given along the tile grid, welds what coincides, and builds each coarser level by taking
// the four tiles below it and collapsing edges until the tile costs what one tile should. What
// it never does is invent ground - a hole in the scenery stays a hole - or move a vertex that
// sits on a tile's border, which is what lets neighbours drawn at different levels meet.
//
// Triangles standing upright have no ground in them, and are refused rather than laid: they are
// walls, and the scenery goes on drawing them itself. refusals() says which.
//
// Shared by the engine's first-run bake and the offline tool, so the two cannot drift apart.
// Millions of triangles do not fit in memory, so what is added is spilled to a scratch file and
// read back a tile at a time.
