Computes the distance to the first intersection point
on a object regardless if it is entry/exit/glancing

There were two problems fixed in this, one is that there was a
downcasting to CSGObject which quietly broke calculating absorption for
all mesh objects, the other was that Container was did not have its
concrete geometry used ever.

The generation is now handled by free functions in Geometry::RandomPoint.

Re #24636

This includes changes in MaterialBuilder, SetSampleMaterial and
LoadSampleEnvironment and the relevant Python exports.

Additionally fixed the return type of some getMaterial() and material()
methods; they were supposed to return references not copies.
