IO: write_PLY() for Epeck (#7874)
## Summary of Changes

As reported in #7868 the function `CGAL::IO::write_PLY()` used in binary
mode does not correctly write the coordinates if the points are from a
kernel with exact constructions.
~~This PR applies `to_double()" to the coordinates.~~

~~After a discussion with @MaelRL we decided that the user is in charge
to pass a `vertex_point_map` as named parameter that does the
conversion. This is straightforward as we offer the
[`Cartesian_converter_property_map`](https://doc.cgal.org/latest/Property_map/structCGAL_1_1Cartesian__converter__property__map.html).~~

Moving back to the previous proposal: hardcode some to_double and
to_float casts such that we meet the requirements of the file format,
whatever the input.

As the problem is the same for the vertex normals we add a named
parameter `vertex_normal_map`.

### Todo
- [x] Fix the generic function `write_polygon_mesh()`. Currently it is
fixed for `Surface_mesh`
