/*!
 * This method performs the 2nd step of Partition of 2D mesh.
 * This method has 4 inputs :
 *  - a mesh 'm1' with meshDim==1 and a SpaceDim==2
 *  - a mesh 'm2' with meshDim==1 and a SpaceDim==2
 *  - subDiv of size 'm2->getNumberOfCells()' that lists for each seg cell in 'm2' the splitting node ids randomly sorted.
 * The aim of this method is to sort the splitting nodes, if any, and to put them in 'intersectEdge' output parameter based on edges of mesh 'm2'
 * Nodes end up lying consecutively on a cutted edge.
 * \param m1 is expected to be a mesh of meshDimension equal to 1 and spaceDim equal to 2. No check of that is performed by this method.
 * (Only present for its coords in case of 'subDiv' shares some nodes of 'm1')
 * \param m2 is expected to be a mesh of meshDimension equal to 1 and spaceDim equal to 2. No check of that is performed by this method.
 * \param addCoo input parameter with additional nodes linked to intersection of the 2 meshes.
 * \param[out] intersectEdge the same content as subDiv, but correctly oriented.

 * This non const method works on 2D mesh. This method scans every cell in \a this and look if each edge constituting this cell is not mergeable with neighbors edges of that cell.

 * This method do not take care of shared edges between cells, so this method can lead to a non conform mesh (\a this). If a conform mesh is required you're expected
 * to invoke MEDCouplingUMesh::mergeNodes and MEDCouplingUMesh::conformize2D right after this call.
 * This method works on any 2D geometric types of cell (even static one). If a cell is touched its type becomes dynamic automatically. For 2D "repaired" quadratic cells
 * new nodes for center of merged edges is are systematically created and appended at the end of the previously existing nodes.
 *
