/// \class UsdGeomMesh
///
/// Encodes a mesh with optional subdivision properties and features.
/// 
/// As a point-based primitive, meshes are defined in terms of points that 
/// are connected into edges and faces. Many references to meshes use the
/// term 'vertex' in place of or interchangeably with 'points', while some
/// use 'vertex' to refer to the 'face-vertices' that define a face.  To
/// avoid confusion, the term 'vertex' is intentionally avoided in favor of
/// 'points' or 'face-vertices'.
/// 
/// The connectivity between points, edges and faces is encoded using a
/// common minimal topological description of the faces of the mesh.  Each
/// face is defined by a set of face-vertices using indices into the Mesh's
/// _points_ array (inherited from UsdGeomPointBased) and laid out in a
/// single linear _faceVertexIndices_ array for efficiency.  A companion
/// _faceVertexCounts_ array provides, for each face, the number of
/// consecutive face-vertices in _faceVertexIndices_ that define the face.
/// No additional connectivity information is required or constructed, so
/// no adjacency or neighborhood queries are available.
/// 
/// A key property of this mesh schema is that it encodes both subdivision
/// surfaces and simpler polygonal meshes. This is achieved by varying the
/// _subdivisionScheme_ attribute, which is set to specify Catmull-Clark
/// subdivision by default, so polygonal meshes must always be explicitly
/// declared. The available subdivision schemes and additional subdivision
/// features encoded in optional attributes conform to the feature set of
/// OpenSubdiv
/// (https://graphics.pixar.com/opensubdiv/docs/subdivision_surfaces.html).
/// 
/// \anchor UsdGeom_Mesh_Primvars
/// __A Note About Primvars__
/// 
/// The following list clarifies the number of elements for and the
/// interpolation behavior of the different primvar interpolation types
/// for meshes:
/// 
/// - __constant__: One element for the entire mesh; no interpolation.
/// - __uniform__: One element for each face of the mesh; elements are
/// typically not interpolated but are inherited by other faces derived
/// from a given face (via subdivision, tessellation, etc.).
/// - __varying__: One element for each point of the mesh;
/// interpolation of point data is always linear.
/// - __vertex__: One element for each point of the mesh;
/// interpolation of point data is applied according to the
/// _subdivisionScheme_ attribute.
/// - __faceVarying__: One element for each of the face-vertices that
/// define the mesh topology; interpolation of face-vertex data may
/// be smooth or linear, according to the _subdivisionScheme_ and
/// _faceVaryingLinearInterpolation_ attributes.
/// 
/// Primvar interpolation types and related utilities are described more
/// generally in \ref Usd_InterpolationVals.
/// 
/// \anchor UsdGeom_Mesh_Normals
/// __A Note About Normals__
/// 
/// Normals should not be authored on a subdivision mesh, since subdivision
/// algorithms define their own normals. They should only be authored for
/// polygonal meshes (_subdivisionScheme_ = "none").
/// 
/// The _normals_ attribute inherited from UsdGeomPointBased is not a generic
/// primvar, but the number of elements in this attribute will be determined by
/// its _interpolation_.  See \ref UsdGeomPointBased::GetNormalsInterpolation() .
/// If _normals_ and _primvars:normals_ are both specified, the latter has
/// precedence.  If a polygonal mesh specifies __neither__ _normals_ nor
/// _primvars:normals_, then it should be treated and rendered as faceted,
/// with no attempt to compute smooth normals.
/// 
/// The normals generated for smooth subdivision schemes, e.g. Catmull-Clark
/// and Loop, will likewise be smooth, but others, e.g. Bilinear, may be
/// discontinuous between faces and/or within non-planar irregular faces.
///
/// For any described attribute \em Fallback \em Value or \em Allowed \em Values below
/// that are text/tokens, the actual token is published and defined in \ref UsdGeomTokens.
/// So to set an attribute to the value "rightHanded", use UsdGeomTokens->rightHanded
/// as the value.
