In case a query outside is performed, add SDF gradient computation using finite differences.
For SDFs generated from meshes, when the query point lies outside of the bounding box, the gradient provided by SdfLib ignores the SDF and is equivalent to the gradient of the distance from the bounding box, causing local minima in the contact point optimization. This CL increased the size of the bounding boxes and replaces the SdfLib gradient with a finite difference approximation of the gradient if a point lies outside it.

SdfLib returns the sum of the distance from a given point to the bounding box and a saved minimum distance from the surface over the whole box boundary. This underestimates the true distance and can cause spurious contacts and jittering. This CL performs a box projection of points outside the bounding box and adds the distance of the original point from the box to the distance of the projected point to the surface. This overestimates the true distance and avoids spurious collisions.

Increased tolerance above zero in nutbolt.xml since now the two parts lock otherwise. Measured speedup of 2x in this example.
This solves the issue of scale-dependent step sizes. Tested on gears with 10cm diameter and 2cm thickness.
