returns the facets of the outside wall of a tube between to Contours

Description

If two contours are gives as vertex list and edge list, this procedure returns a facet list that generates a tube between these two contours. It is used to connect two bodies if VLFLpprojectPLEL was unable to generate an attachment body.
Use VLFLpprojectPLEL to attach a vessel orthogonal to a vessel structure
Use VLFLconnect2VLEL to connect to vessel in line to a vessel structure
