Description

The [docs for the braid example](https://llnl-conduit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/blueprint_mesh.html#braid) currently say "nx, ny, nz specify the number of **elements** in the x, y, and z directions" when in reality, the actual behavior seems to be "nx, ny, nz specify the number of **points** in the x, y, and z directions".

Research direction

Start with the linked braid section in the Blueprint Mesh documentation and compare its description with the stated behavior of nx, ny, and nz. Update the wording so it says these values specify the number of points in each direction, then verify the rendered documentation reflects the correction.
