Macro definition: Create3DAxialFluxMachine

Goal of the This macro intends to create a 3D axial flux machine, including the motor
macro geometry and mesh. Eleven modifiable parameters can be adjusted to build the
motor model. In each simulation model, only 3 stator slots and 2 rotor poles
will be considered. The physical regions will also be defined, including the
infinite box.
