I wonder if there is a way to create a curved prim (not the edges, but its
surface).

Since prism already has an option of conic_sweep, the same principle may create
a curvature on its surface.

In conic_sweep, the size of prism decreases linearly in the y-axis. Instead of a
linear decrease, can we shrink the prism along the y-axis to form a semi-sphere
instead of a sharp cone (of conic_sweep)?
