- use these updated names and functionality in more places
NB: The older methods names are deprecated, but continue to be defined.
- this makes it possible to perform additional operations
on surface values that have been previously sampled.
- support vectorField for weighting operations.
- reduce overhead by avoiding creation of weight fields, Sf fields
and combined surface geometries unless they are actually required.
- extend some similar concepts and operations to volFieldValue
