We often create meshes in GMSH format using the meshio library. This
works OK if we stick to GMSH file format 2.2.
If we use GMSH file format 4.1, DMPlex can't read them because it
expects the "Entities" section to be present:

By default meshio doesn't seem to write the Entities section. From what
I can gather, it is optional.
Am I right that this section is not optional in DMPlex?
