1) The sign of radiative flux (qr) for modes Power and HeatFlux was
corrected.

2) Relaxation factor implementation was incomplete. Now caching
valueFraction and refValue from  the previous time step.

- as a side-effect of recent changes, command-line stripping of .gz
  extensions on input was lost. For example,

      OK:    surfaceTransformPoints file.stl ...
      Fail:  surfaceTransformPoints file.stl.gz ...

- restore the previous behaviour of silently stripping the '.gz'
  extension on input.

ENH: add triSurface::New selector entry point

- for symmetry with MeshedSurface

  Now the thermal baffle can be extrapolated from a patch which is
  coupled to the bottom patch of the solid region.

  The user can set the T bc on the 'top' patch of the solid.

  The new keyword is 'internal' and its default is true. Check new
  tutorial for an example:

  tutorials/heatTransfer/buoyantSimpleFoam/roomWithThickCeiling/

- reads/write shell elements
  Output elements are "bunched" according to type and their set
  without reordering.

- preliminary reading of solids without extraction.
  Handling of *Surface specifications is not implemented

- enhancement and potential breaking change.

  Nastran surface writer previously used the keyword 'scale' for
  field scaling, which was applied uniformly to all output fields.

  Change the meaning of 'scale' to be geometric scaling
  (consistent with reading triSurfaceMesh etc).

  New 'fieldScale' entry is an optional dictionary of scaling
  parameters.

  Example,

      nastran
      {
          scale   1000;     // [m] -> [mm]
          fieldScale
          {
             "p.*"   0.01;  // [Pa] -> [mbar]
          }
      }

- 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

- eg, for a uniform field and auto range.

- had a PrimitivePatch with SubField, but now use const pointField&.

  There is no derivation path from a pointIOField to SubField<point>,
  so a const reference makes more sense.

- 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.

- regression introduced by 431c9632

  The triSurface dictionary constructor applies the scaling,
  and thus it can be reported, but not applied in triSurfaceMesh

- refactor common exit/abort code

- support single-parameter output. Eg,

    FatalError("some-executable")
        << "Cannot load something\n"
        << exit(FatalError);

- 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;
  }
  ```

- orphaned file: extendedFeatureEdgeMeshI.H

- unused primitiveFaceZone typedef.
  Identical to indirectPrimitivePatch typedef

- conversion, sampling, surfMesh

- placed in stdFoam.H (as well as autoPtr.H) for general availability

STYLE: minor adjustments to autoPtr code layout

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

- log to stdout when explicitly enabled

- missed detection of system libraries when installed with multiarch
  paths like /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

CONFIG: improve handling of group/user config files (#928)

- changed bashrc handling of FOAM_CONFIG_NOUSER to use
  FOAM_CONFIG_MODE instead. Propagate into foamEtcFile to make this
  a stickier control.

  This change allows better control, but also enables cluster
  installations to define their own value within the OpenFOAM prefs.sh
  file to prevent users accidentally mis-configuring things if
  necessary.

- remove undocumented handling of an (a)ll mode in foamEtcFile to
  avoid potential pitfalls.

- add support for FOAM_CONFIG_ETC handling.
  This allows injection of an extra search layer when finding
  project etc files

ENH: improvements to foamConfigurePaths (#928)

- handle FOAM_CONFIG_ETC implicitly, or explicitly with the new
  -etc option.

STYLE: more explicit wording in foamConfigurePaths usage (#1602)

- document that an absolute path (eg, -scotch-path) overrides/ignores
  the equivalent ThirdParty setting (eg, -scotch)

- longer options -system-compiler and -third-compiler for -system
  and -third, respectively. Clearer as to their purpose.

- adjust the location sanity check to look for META-INFO directory.

- base level surface container is now a meshedSurface instead of
  a triSurface. This avoid automatic triangulation of surfaces
  when they are read, and simplifies the internals.

- sampling types:
  * "meshedSurface" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMesh")
  * "meshedSurfaceNormal" (compat: "sampledTriSurfaceMeshNormal")

- removed swapZones method (unused, potentially fragile)

- add subsetMesh by name

BUG: incorrect zone assignment in MeshedSurface::subsetMesh

- used the new (zero-sized) zone when determining the old zone ending
  instead of the original zone bounds.

- use local branching for face maps to reduce code complexity
  and duplication
