A mesh3d object
Interactive function that allows a users to select points in 3D space from neuronlist/neuron objects,
or another object that is coercible in 3D points using xyzmatrix. Points can first be automatically chosen, by
selecting an integer number of nearest neighbours to find for each point using nabor::knn, and then a
maximum distance at which nodes can be part of a cluster. Next, select_points is used to manually pick desired 3D
points. Lastly, alphashape3d::ashape3d is used to create an alphashape around these points. The user can trial different values for
alpha until they get their desired result.
