Class
    Foam::patchDistMethods::meshWave

Description
    Fast topological mesh-wave method for calculating the distance to nearest
    patch for all cells and boundary.

    For regular/un-distorted meshes this method is accurate but for skewed,
    non-orthogonal meshes it is approximate with the error increasing with the
    degree of mesh distortion.  The distance from the near-wall cells to the
    boundary may optionally be corrected for mesh distortion by setting a
    number of correction iterations.

    Example of the wallDist specification in fvSchemes:
    \verbatim
        wallDist
        {
            method meshWave;

            // Number of corrections
            nCorrectors 3;

            // Optional entry enabling the calculation
            // of the normal-to-wall field
            nRequired false;
        }
    \endverbatim
