- Any trailing whitespace when parsing from strings or character buffers
  is ignored rather than being treated as an error. This is consistent
  with behaviour when reading from an Istream and with leading whitespace
  being ignored in the underlying atof/atod, strtof/strtod... functions.

- Allow parsing directly from a std::string instead of just from a 'char*'.
  This reflects the C++11 addition of std::stod to complement the C
  functions strtod. This also makes it easier to parse string directly
  without using an IStringStream.

- Two-parameter parsing methods return success/failure.
  Eg,

      if (readInt32(str, &int32Val)) ...

- One-parameter parsing methods return the value on success or
  emit a FatalIOError.
  Eg,

      const char* buf;
      int32Val = readInt32(buf, &);

- Improved consistency when parsing unsigned ints.
  Use strtoimax and strtoumax throughout.

- Rename readDoubleScalar -> readDouble, readFloatScalar -> readFloat.
  Using the primitive name directly instead of the Foam typedef for
  better consistency with readInt32 etc.

- Clean/improve parseNasScalar.
  Handle normal numbers directly, reduce some operations.

Note that now mirrorMesh does not delete empty patches anymore.

Feature paraview clouds

See merge request !145

- Can occur if the selected geometry does not actually exist.
  A non-critical bug since paraview catches this anyhow and
  just emits a warning message.

- previous only checked for clouds at the last instance and only
  detected lagrangian fields from the first cloud.

  Now check for clouds at all instances and detect all of their fields
  as well.

Feature surface field value operations

See merge request !141

Feature surface scaling

See merge request !139

- affects surfaceFieldValue, volFieldValue.

  Use 'none' (if desired) to explicitly suppress the weightField, but
  generally better to use a different operation.

- relocate as Test-surfaceMeshConvert.

BugFix: corrected keyword for flowRateInletVelocity BC fixes #577

Closes #577

See merge request !143

There are a few issues:
- error would only throw exceptions if not parallel
- if we change this we also need to make sure the functionObjectList
  construction is synchronised
- bounding box overlap was not returning the correct status so the code
  to avoid the issue of 'badly formed bounding box' was not triggered.

     fixes #560
