Mesh converters
---------------
Most mesh formats use cyclics in a single patch (i.e. the old way).
The converters have been adapted to use the patch 'oldCyclic' instead of
'cyclic'. oldCyclic uses the 17x automatic ordering but writes 'type cyclic'
so afterwards foamUpgradeCyclics can be run to upgrade.
