- adjustments to internal handling to improve run-time addition of
  other formats (eg, with additional user library)

  For example, to write a binary STL with a '.stl' extension:

    $ surfaceMeshConvert input.obj  -write-format stlb  output.stl

  Or in a sampler,
  to specify the input type without ambiguity:

  surf
  {
      type        meshedSurface;
      surface     sampling.inp;

      fileType    starcd;
      scale       0.001;
      ...
  }

STYLE: regularize naming for input/output scaling

  * -read-scale   (compat: -scaleIn)
  * -write-scale  (compat: -scaleOut)

CONFIG: change edge/surface selection name for STARCD format

- now select as "starcd" instead of "inp" to avoid naming ambiguity
  with abaqus

- face_type, point_type (similar to STL value_type, etc).
  The naming avoids potential confusion with template parameters.

- rename private typedef from ParentType to MeshReference for more
  consistency with polySurface etc.

- previously used a Pstream::exit() invoked from the argList
  destructor to handle all MPI shutdown, but this has the unfortunate
  side-effect of using a fixed return value for the program exit.

  Instead use the Pstream::shutdown() method in the destructor and allow
  the normal program exit codes as usual. This means that the
  following code now works as expected.

  ```
  argList args(...);

  if (...)
  {
      InfoErr<< "some error\n";
      return 1;
  }
  ```

* Use cast for std::pow(??, z).
* No cast for std::pow(z, ??) - already properly specialized.

- uses MeshedSurface instead of triSurface to prevent automatic
  triangulation.

- supports '-patches' and '-excludePatches' controls as per foamToVTK.
  For example,

    surfaceSplitByPatch -patches '( ".*rider.*" )'  motorBike.obj

ENH: use MeshedSurface for surfaceSubset

- coordinateSystems, DictionaryBase

  STYLE: update dimensionSets in SpalartAllmaras

- refactored from ensightMesh, foamToVTK, surfaceMeshExtract

STYLE: use wordRes matching() method instead of findString() function

- use point::uniform in more places

- emit "constant " and "uniform " as separate word/space combination

Style changes:
  - use std algorithm for some stringOps internals
  - pass SubStrings iterators by const reference

- reduces the number of parameters that are being passed around
  and allows future additions into the IOstreamOption with mininal
  effort.

Kutalmış Berçin authored 5 years ago and Mark OLESEN committed 5 years ago

- was missing cast to symmTensor

* Support default values for format/compress enum lookups.

  - Avoids situations where the preferred default format is not ASCII.
    For example, with dictionary input:

        format binar;

    The typing mistake would previously have caused formatEnum to
    default to ASCII. We can now properly control its behaviour.

        IOstream::formatEnum
        (
            dict.get<word>("format"), IOstream::BINARY
        );

    Allowing us to switch ascii/binary, using BINARY by default even in
    the case of spelling mistakes. The mistakes are flagged, but the
    return value can be non-ASCII.

* The format/compression lookup behave as pass-through if the lookup
  string is empty.

  - Allows the following to work without complaint

      IOstream::formatEnum
      (
          dict.getOrDefault("format", word::null), IOstream::BINARY
      );

  - Or use constructor-like failsafe method

      IOstream::formatEnum("format", dict, IOstream::BINARY);

  - Apply the same behaviour with setting stream format/compression
    from a word.

       is.format("binar");

    will emit a warning, but leave the stream format UNCHANGED

* Rationalize versionNumber construction

  - constexpr constructors where possible.
    Default construct is the "currentVersion"

  - Construct from token to shift the burden to versionNumber.
    Support token as argument to version().

    Now:

        is.version(headerDict.get<token>("version"));

    or failsafe constructor method

        is.version
        (
            IOstreamOption::versionNumber("version", headerDict)
        );

    Before (controlled input):

        is.version
        (
            IOstreamOption::versionNumber
            (
                headerDict.get<float>("version")
            )
        );

    Old, uncontrolled input - has been removed:

        is.version(headerDict.lookup("version"));

* improve consistency, default behaviour for IOstreamOption construct

  - constexpr constructors where possible

  - add copy construct with change of format.

  - construct IOstreamOption from streamFormat is now non-explicit.
    This is a commonly expected result with no ill-effects

- align Switch more with Enum.
  Now have find(), found() static methods.
  Constructors with failsafe option.

  The find() method makes for clearer coding:

  OLD

     Switch sw(some_string, true); // NB: true = allowBad

     if (sw.valid()) ...

  NOW

     Switch sw = Switch::find(some_string);

     if (sw.good()) ...

  or

     if (Switch::found(some_string)) ...

- improve construct from dictionary to handle all valid token types.
  Previously just read in a word.

- Remove asText() method - replaced by c_str() and str() several
  versions ago.

- renamed 'core/' -> 'base/' to avoid gitignore masking when re-adding
  files

- rename 'nas/' to 'nastran/' for more clarity

- relocated OBJstream from surfMesh to fileFormats

STYLE: remove unused parseNASCoord. Was deprecated 2017-09

- includes restructuring and simplification of low-level ensight part
  handling and refactor of backends to improve code reuse.

foamToEnsight
-------------

  * new cellZone support.
    This was previously only possible via a separate foamToEnsightParts
    utility that was not parallelized.

  * support for point fields.

  * `-nearCellValue` option (as per foamToVTK)

  * data indexing now uses values from the time index.
    This is consistent with the ensightWrite function object and
    can help with restarts.

  * existing ensight directories are removed, unless the -no-overwrite
    option is supplied

foamToEnsightParts
------------------
  * now redundant and removed.

ensightOutputSurface (new class)
--------------------------------
  * a lightweight wrapper for point/face references that is tailored
    for the ensightSurfaceWriter. It uses compact face/point information
    and is serial only, since this is the format requirements from the
    surfaceWriter class.

ensightMesh (revised class)
---------------------------
  * now only holds a polyMesh reference, which removes its dependency
    on finiteVolume and allows it to be relocated under fileFormats
    instead of conversion.

Removed classes: ensightParts, ensighPartFaces, ensightPartCells

- these were used by foamToEnsightParts, but not needed anymore.

- also now report any verbosity on stderr

- fix similar collated directories issue for foamRestoreFields

- simplifies code, covers most cases.
  Can use wmake -show-api or wmakeBuildInfo to query the make rules.

STYLE: Allwmake script adjustments

- use bin/foamEtcFile instead of relying on PATH.
  The make environment may not have the OpenFOAM bin/ in it.

- simpler shell syntax

- provides an indirect access to a sub-section of a list that is
  somewhat less efficient than a Foam::SubList, but supports the
  following:
    * adjustment of its addressing range after construction
    * recovery of the original, underlying list at any time

  This can be more convenient for some coding cases.
  For example,

      template<class Addr>
      void renumberFaces(IndirectListBase<face, Addr>& faces, ...);

  which can be called for

      * Specific faces:
        UIndirectList<face>(mesh.faces(), facesToChange)

      * A sub-range of faces:
        IndirectSubList<face>(mesh.faces(), pp.range())

      * All faces:
        IndirectSubList<face>(mesh.faces())

CONFIG: added IndirectListsFwd.H with some common forwarding
