Creates volume fields whose boundaries are used to store patch interaction
statistics.

Current field output per patch face:
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:count - cumulative particle hits
- \<cloud\>\<model\>:mass - cumuluative mass of hitting particles

Fields can be reset according to:
- none: fields are not reset
- timeStep: reset at each time step
- writeTime: reset at each write time

Usage

    patchInteractionFields1
    {
        type            patchInteractionFields;
        resetMode       writeTime;
    }

Member function dKcdTbyKc in thermo.H is calculated from S and G at Pstd.
Thus dGdT was removed from the thermos.

- Add optional hRef, eRef and Tref as optional.

- Use new thermo to multiphase solver icoReactingMuliPhaseFoam

- Remove hRefConst and eRefConst thermos.

The generalizedNewtonian viscocity models were ported from
the org version and added to the laminar turbulence framework.

This allows use in compressible and incompressible solvers
through the turbulence dictionary under the laminar sub-dictionary.

The thermal laminar viscosity is taken from the thermo for solvers
that use thermo library or from the transportProperties dictionary
for incompressible solvers.

At the moment the option to include viscocity models through the
transportDict is still available.

The icoTabulated equation of state was ported from the org version.

STYLE: use 'model' instead of 'laminarModel' in tutorials

- implicitly enabled when timeStampMaster (default) is used
  for the fileModificationChecking

- When running with non-distributed roots (eg, NFS-share) read for
  processor directories on master only and send to sub-processes
  instead individual reads.

- If disabled (old default, or when running with distributed roots),
  uses the regular fileHandler readDir, which may perform readDir
  on each processor. Potentially slow startup times on large systems.

Improvements based on analysis from T.Aoyagi(RIST), A.Azami(RIST)

ENH: buoyantTurbSource: new fvOption

See merge request !397

    Applies sources on turbulent kinetic energy (i.e. `k`)
    and either turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate (i.e. `epsilon`)
    or specific dissipation rate (i.e. `omega`) to incorporate effects
    of buoyancy on turbulence in incompressible and compressible flows.

    See buoyancyTurbSource.H for details.

  STYLE: use auto/tmp wherever possible
  ENH: make destructor/deleted constructors consistent with FOs

- can be used directly, or in special cases like a searchable plane
  with a gap of things in the centre that are not to be sampled.

- was previously via inheritance, but using member data instead
  supports a more flexible internal switching of the storage. It also
  ensures that data access remains safe, even in the absence of
  an isoSurface.

- better alignment of sampling Cell/Point/Topo inputs

- make exposedPatchName optional for isoSurface, cuttingPlane. This
  was a holdover requirement from an older version of fvMeshSubset

- loop for interpolating volume elements to face points,
  which removes duplicate code in several other places

- add debug field to isoSurfaceTopo
- don't need dynamic field for new points

- reduce code in sampledIsoSurfaceCell

- yields cleaner surfaces with few cuts.

  Can use isoMethod keyword to select cell/point/topo if they prove
  better for any particular case.

CONFIG: change default cuttingPlane algorithm from 'cell' to 'topo'

- better distinction between types of algorithms.
  Easier for future deprecation/replacement.

- bundles selection and control parameters used when creating
  iso-surfaces. This simplifies selection and specification

- drop old compatibility handling of "cell" as a bool

- harmonize filter/regularisation flags for iso-surface

- for dictionary input, accept "isoMethod" and "isoAlgorithm" as being
  synonymous. Using "isoMethod" is less subject to typing errors.

TUT: dictionary form of surfaces instead of list

- for boundary meshes, zones etc. The behaviour with an empty matcher
  was either not properly documented, and looped through all
  names just to establish there was no match.

STYLE: removed redundant typedefs for point fields

- robuster matching behaviour when encountering paths that themselves
  contain the word "processor" in them. For example,

    "/path/processor0generation2/case1/processor10/system"
    will now correctly match on processor10 instead of failing.

- use procRangeType for encapsulating the processor ranges

- provision for information of distributed vs non-distributed roots.
  The information is currently available from the initial setup, but
  can useful to access directly within fileOperation.

STYLE: modernize list iteration

- the NullObject singleton can also be cast to a bitSet
  (sufficient size and bit-pattern). Useful for places that
  need to hold a reference on construction

- UPstream::rangeType as typedef for IntRange<int> for better use
  semantics

- Makefile only checks set/unset, so handle 'false' within wmake
  itself

- (tet, pyr, hex) can be identified from their number of faces
  and vertices. For these common shapes can use static `test()`
  method instead of the virtual isA() method.

  This is much cheaper for calling on an individual basis since
  it avoids the overhead of constructing an object.

ENH: tetCell edge/reverseEdge (already had tetEdge)

- avoid potential future mistakes if someone adds a sizing dimension
  and finds they have inadvertently called construct labelList with
  `{std::initializer_list<label>}` instead of `label`
