Support polygons and polyhedras in more meshing utilities and generators #32159

Description

@GiudGiud

Motivation

General issue for adding support for polygons and polyhedras in meshing utilities and generators.
This could concern roughly 50 utilities and generators, so a single issue would work better.

Design

Generally we have switch statements based on the element type, we need to add the polygon and polyhedron cases to those statements.
This can be quite involved at times as polys are more general.

Impact

More support for polys
Increased adoption
Better simulation results when they perform better than tetrahedra
