Now faceZones are handled directly by the applications and the new
faceZone::topoChange function so that any face can now be in any number of
zones, significantly increasing the flexibility and usefulness of faceZones.
This completes the generalisation of cellZone, faceZone and pointZone to support
multiple zones for each cell, face or point respectively. Next step will be to
make zones polymorphic and run-time selectable so that they can alter during the
run and adapt to moving meshes for example.
Now cellZones are handled directly by the applications and the new
cellZone::topoChange function so that any cell can now be in any number of
zones, significantly increasing the flexibility and usefulness of cellZones.
The same rationalisation and generalisation will be applied to faceZones in the
future.
Now pointZones are handled directly by the applications and the new
pointZone::topoChange function so that any point can now be in any number of
zones, significantly increasing the flexibility and usefulness of pointZones.
The same rationalisation and generalisation will be applied to cellZones and
faceZones in the future.
The concept of cell and face inflation proved unworkable in general and has been
replaced by the more flexible and robust cell-splitting combined with
conservative interpolative mapping and mesh morphing as appropriate.
The concept of cell inflation from faces or points proved unworkable in general
and has been replaced by the more flexible and robust cell-splitting combined

The polyTopoChangeMap is the map specifically relating to polyMesh topological
changes generated by polyTopoChange and used to update and map mesh related
types and fields following the topo-change.
