OpenSubdiv provides two well known subdivision surface types -- Catmull-Clark (often referred
to more tersely as "Catmark") and Loop subdivision. Catmull-Clark is more widely used and
suited to quad-dominant meshes, while Loop is preferred for purely triangulated meshes.

of Loop subdivision (i.e. arbitrary evaluation of the surface via patches) is not supported
prior to version 3.4.*
