Raycast geometry node.

The //Raycast// node intersects rays from one geometry onto another.
It computes hit points on the target mesh and returns normals, distances
and any surface attribute specified by the user.

A ray starts on each point of the input //Geometry//. Rays continue
in the //Ray Direction// until they either hit the //Target Geometry//
or reach the //Ray Length// limit. If the target is hit, the value of the
//Is Hit// attribute in the output mesh will be true. //Hit Position//,
//Hit Normal//, //Hit Distance// and //Hit Index// are the properties of the
target mesh at the intersection point. In addition, a //Target Attribute//
can be specified that is interpolated at the hit point and the result
stored in //Hit Attribute//.
