Automatic Contact Set Detection

The automatic detection tool for contact sets is improved to detect surface splines touching planar or cylindrical faces.

The option Find shell edge - solid/shell face pairs (automatic detection tool for contact sets) is enhanced to detect contact sets between solid and shell bodies that intersect at spline surfaces.
