      ENH: regIOobject store() now also registers the object · b0072bfa

      - previously the store() method just set the ownedByRegistry flag.
        Now ensure that it is indeed registered first.
      
      - support register/store of tmp<> items.
        The tmp parameter is not cleared, but changed from PTR to CREF
        to allow further use.
      
        The implicit registration allows code simplification using the
        GeometricField::New factory method, for example.
      
        Old Code
        ========
            volScalarField* ptr = new volScalarField
            (
                IOobject
                (
                    fieldName,
                    mesh.time().timeName(),
                    mesh,
                    IOobject::NO_READ,
                    IOobject::NO_WRITE,
                    true  // Register
                ),
                mesh,
                dimless,
                zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
            );
            ptr->store();
      
        New Code
        ========
            auto tptr = volScalarField::New
            (
                fieldName,
                mesh,
                dimless,
                zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
            );
            regIOobject::store(tptr);
      
        or even
            regIOobject::store
            (
                volScalarField::New
                (
                    fieldName,
                    mesh,
                    dimless,
                    zeroGradientFvPatchField<scalar>::typeName
                )
            );
