Class
    Foam::normalToFace

Description
    A \c topoSetFaceSource to select faces whose surface normal aligned
    with a given direction.

    Operands:
    \table
      Operand   | Type    | Location
      output    | faceSet | $FOAM_CASE/constant/polyMesh/sets/\<set\>
    \endtable

Usage
    Minimal example by using \c system/topoSetDict.actions:
    \verbatim
    {
        // Mandatory (inherited) entries
        name        <name>;
        type        faceSet;
        action      <action>;

        // Mandatory entries
        source      normalToFace;
        normal      (1 0 0);
        cos         0.01;
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property   | Description                         | Type | Req'd | Dflt
      name       | Name of faceSet                     | word |  yes  | -
      type       | Type name: faceSet                  | word |  yes  | -
      action     | Action applied on faces - see below | word |  yes  | -
      source     | Source name: normalToFace           | word |  yes  | -
      normal     | The surface normal direction        | vector | yes | -
      cos        | Tolerance angle (range -1, +1), i.e. cosine of angle <!--
               --> between the input normal and face normal | scalar | yes | -
    \endtable

    Options for the \c action entry:
    \verbatim
      new      | Create a new faceSet from selected faces
      add      | Add selected faces into this faceSet
      subtract | Remove selected faces from this faceSet
    \endverbatim
