issue in ideasunvtofoam with meshes with 1D groups

Summary

ideasunvtofoam is one of the approaches to import meshes created from salome. Nevertheless if the mesh has 1D element groups, the ideasunvtofoam will crash without the possibility of importing the mesh. This bug has been here since several versions of OpenFOAM

Steps to reproduce

Try to import a mesh that had 1D element groups before being exported from salome to UNV format. This will break the importation procedure

Example case

Trying to import the example.unv mesh should make the ideasunvtofoam to crash (I don't have access to OF right now).example.unv I leave the same mesh but without the edge group exported which should work correctly for ideasunvtofoam exampleWithoutEdgesGroups.unv

What is the current bug behaviour?

ideasunvtofoam crashes without leaving any possibility to import the mesh to OF

What is the expected correct behavior?

ideasunvtofoam should ignore this groups and import the mesh as it would not have them
