Description:
The plicRDF interface reconstruction scheme calculates a reconstructed distance
function (RDF) in all interface cells and their point neighbours.
In point neighbours to interface cells, the RDF is calculated as a weighted
average of the distances to all adjacent interface cell centres with the weight
being the inverse distance to the cell centre.
By using the zoneDistribute class written by Henning Scheufler, the required
stencil data is communicated efficiently for stencil cells living on different
sides of one or more processor patches.
Some of the data required for the RDF reconstruction are cell centre and
interface centre positions. When a stencil extends across a cyclic patch these
positions have so far not been properly transformed in OpenFOAM. This issue is
fixed by the current contribution.
The fix is done by modifying the zoneDistribute class to hold the required
information about zone cells ad...

Accumulates function object result values and renders into a graph in SVG format

Minimal example by using system/controlDict.functions to plot the residuals from
the solverInfo function Object:

    residualGraph

        libs            (utilityFunctionObjects);
        writeControl    writeTime;

        logScaleX       no;
        logScaleY       yes;

        xlabel          "Iteration";
        ylabel          "log10(Initial residual)";

        functions
        {

Multi-faceZone based blending differencing scheme.

Schemes are set in dictonary format according to:

    divSchemes
    {
        .
        .
        div(phi,U)      Gauss zoneBlended
        {
            default         defaultScheme;
            faceZone1       scheme1;
            faceZone2       scheme2;
            ...
            faceZoneN       schemeN;
        }
        .
        .
    }

The default entry specifies the background scheme; additional schemes
can be set per faceZone, e.g. scheme1 is applied to facZone1,
scheme2 is applied to facZone2 etc.

ENH: processorFaPatch: use internal-edge algos for processor edges to ensure parallel consistency

See merge request !708

- The edgeInterpolation::makeCorrectionVectors() disables the non-orthogonality
correction if the calculated non-orthogonality coefficient is below 0.1.
However, this activation routine only considers internal edges, and excludes
any processor edges, resulting in inconsistent parallel calculations. This
routine is removed.
- Fatal errors are replaced with zero-valued fields for non-orthogonality-
and skewness-correction routines.

The basis of the table is specified according to the mode:

- velocity: deltap = F(velocity per face) \[DEFAULT\]
- uniformVelocity: deltap = F(patch area-averaged velocity)
- volumeFlowRate:  deltap = F(patch volume flow rate)
- nonDimensional:  non-dim deltap = F(non-dim volume flow rate)

Example of the boundary condition specification:

    <patchName>
    {
        type            fan;
        patchType       cyclic;
        jumpTable       csvFile;
