3eec5854be Standardized the selection of required and optional fields in BCs, fvOptions, functionObjects etc.
In most boundary conditions, fvOptions etc. required and optional fields
to be looked-up from the objectRegistry are selected by setting the
keyword corresponding to the standard field name in the BC etc. to the
appropriate name in the objectRegistry.  Usually a default is provided
with sets the field name to the keyword name, e.g. in the
totalPressureFvPatchScalarField the velocity is selected by setting the
keyword 'U' to the appropriate name which defaults to 'U':

        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        U            | velocity field name     | no          | U
        phi          | flux field name         | no          | phi
        .
        .
        .

However, in some BCs and functionObjects and many fvOptions another
convention is used in which the field name keyword is appended by 'Name'
e.g.

        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        pName        | pressure field name     | no          | p
        UName        | velocity field name     | no          | U

This difference in convention is unnecessary and confusing, hinders code
and dictionary reuse and complicates code maintenance.  In this commit
the appended 'Name' is removed from the field selection keywords
standardizing OpenFOAM on the first convention above.

4c21f24a8c Input of dimensionedScalars: update read-construction of dimensionedScalar in applications
so that the specification of the name and dimensions are optional in property dictionaries.

Update tutorials so that the name of the dimensionedScalar property is
no longer duplicated but optional dimensions are still provided and are
checked on read.

15198a34bd fluxRequired: Added setFluxRequired function to fvSchemes class
Added calls to setFluxRequired for p in all incompressible solvers which
avoids the need to add fluxRequired entries in fvSchemes dictionary.

Will add calls to setFluxRequired to the rest of the solvers.
