/** @example QuadTriConv.cpp \n
 * \brief Merge vertices in 2d cell, if they are repeated \n
 * To run: QuadTriConv  input_file output_file \n
 *
 * In this example, a mesh that has vertices repeated due to south or north pole, for
 *  example in an rll mesh, need to be converted to triangles, preserving GLOBAL_ID tag
