MOAB read options to detect and/or apply known usage conventions #20984

Is your feature request related to a problem?

MOAB defines various tag-naming conventions.

The MOAB plugin would benefit from a database read option that would allow the user to specify which set of conventions, if any, a given database is using. Such an option should support an Auto-Detect mode too and that sould be the default...which means the plugin does some work (hopefully it is NOT expensive for a MOAB database to do this) to look for telltale signs which convention may be in effect. As well, it should allow a user to explicitly set the convention or indicate that there is no convention although in the latter case, I am not sure how the plugin might, for example, know which tag to read for mesh coordinates.

This is likely relevant to @vijaysm
