Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Often we will come across situations where we have multiple modalities for example Computed Tomography (CT) images acquired along with PET scans. In the pipeline we need to register these two modalities. The registration can be accomplished using a variety of tools like ANTs or Greedy. The affine transformation matrices originating from these registration tasks have different formats. I am sure there are many other examples.
We should support applying these transform to geometric objects

Describe the solution you'd like
It will be nice to have a MONAI transform in the monai.transform module which wraps the applyTransform function in the aforementioned registration packages.

Additional context
Adding these transforms will be useful if and when we start working with multimodal data. This will also help us build pre and post processing pipeline within the monai platform and develop an end-to-end solution.
