ENH: Several additions to thinFilm models

1) Changing the faSolution entry nonOrthoCorr to nFilmCorr entry.
   This entry specify the number of iterations on the film thickness
   Eq which does not correct for laplacian non-orthogonality.

2) Changing laminar turbulent model for the skin friction exerted by
   the flow to the film.

3) Adding optional relaxation factors for source terms coming from
   the added mass of the lagragian particles into the film such as
   rhoSp, pnSp and Usp. Similarly the film pressure (pf) can  be
   relaxed in the inner loops.

4) Adding optional entries to curvatureSepration injection model.
   minimum (fThreshold) force and minimum curvature (minInvR1) for
   separation were added to have more control on determining the
   points of film separation

ENH: ThermoSurfaceFilm in lagragian to search for finiteArea film models

- new model framework: liquidFilm
- new film turbulence models: filmTurbulenceModel with friction models
- new velocity boundary condition: velocityFilmShell to handle/evolve regionFa film
- new function object: setTimeStep to control the simulation time-step based on regionFa Courant number
- add support for the absorption of Lagrangian particles into films

- remove construct from two iterators (#2083)

TUT: some simplification for multiWorld test

STYLE: remove some editor junk

STYLE: additional note about include/exclude HashTable.C

- need to change requireUpdate_ at the beginning of calculateCache
  otherwise it is not updated for "ALL" selection (causing unnecessary
  repeated calculations). For other modes, it would have tripped
  an error in FULLDEBUG.

- lets function objects catch and handle errors
  (fixes #2144, related to #1779)

- handle failures more robustly
- add static shutdown() for similarity with Pstream etc.

- fix linkage for cellModeller compat methods

- unused, but missed in 40567b84

- all flags before loaders. Avoids "uninitialized when used here"
  warning while preserving the field ownership logic.

- relocate override of updateT basicThermo into constructor body
  for clearer logic and initialization

STYLE: plain bool instead of Switch for dpdt flag

Minor clean-up
