Gap container class.

The gap class represents the space between 2 surfaces. It contains the media definition for the space and a (z) displacement between the adjacent surfaces.

The most common use case is an optical system with surfaces centered on a common axis. The Gap structure implements this case in the simplest manner. More complicated transformations between surfaces are implemented using transformations associated with the surfaces themselves.
