Create the mesh chunkwise to avoid memory bottlenecks.

First creates each chunk of the mesh and writes it to a temporary file and then merges the chunks into a single mesh file while only reading the surface of each chunk to memory. The resulting mesh should be equivalent to the one created by ms.create_mesh()

    filenames: Union[List[str], List[pathlib.Path]],

    show_progress: bool = True,
) -> None:
    ...

Merges meshes from a list of files, only keeping the surface of each chunk in memory to avoid memory bottlenecks. Assumes that the chunks are not overlapping but share surfaces. This assumption is not verified and if violated may lead to unusable output.
