Area and volume of a 3D convex hull

Volume and area of a 3D convex hull.

You are now following this Submission

Takes an Nx3 matrix of vertices representing the extreme points of a surface, calls convexhulln to get a convex hull of these points, and uses the resulting facet list to compute the area of that convex hull. Vectorized for speed.
