Support for materials

[adrianschneider94]

Implemented material support.
In this approach, materials are stored in python dataclasses, the OpenCascade objects are only created when building the assembly.
Tests/docs are missing at the moment.

This looks great, I wonder if there is ever a use case for a material to be a string in as an option in addition to these nice material classes you have here. I was wondering if something like this would be possible / useful

assy = cq.Assembly()
assy.add(cube, name="red_cube", material="steel")

@shimwell it would certainly be nice to have some predefined materials, and maybe allow to use the material name for other things too. But let's start with making CI green.

Material support in step exporting will get better in OCCT:
Open-Cascade-SAS/OCCT#447

assy = cq.Assembly()

assy.add(cube, name="red_cube", material="steel")

Would probably nice to have a set of materials to get started, but I think, any real-world application will require custom material sets.
Maybe there's another solution and we can find an existing material repository that can be utilized.

VRML export runs, but is not correct yet.
