This change requires that the de-reference operator '()' returns a
const-reference to the object stored irrespective of the const-ness of
object stored and the new member function 'ref()' is provided to return
an non-const reference to stored object which throws a fatal error if the
stored object is const.
In order to smooth the transition to this new safer 'tmp' the now
deprecated and unsafe non-const de-reference operator '()' is still
provided by default but may be switched-off with the compilation switch
'CONST_TMP'.
The main OpenFOAM library has already been upgraded and '-DCONST_TMP'
option specified in the 'options' file to switch to the new 'tmp'
behavior. The rest of OpenFOAM-dev will be upgraded over the following
few weeks.

Function1 is an abstract base-class of run-time selectable unary
functions which may be composed of other Function1's allowing the user
to specify complex functions of a single scalar variable, e.g. time.
The implementations need not be a simple or continuous functions;
interpolated tables and polynomials are also supported. In fact form of
mapping between a single scalar input and a single primitive type output
is supportable.
The primary application of Function1 is in time-varying boundary
conditions, it also used for other functions of time, e.g. injected mass
is spray simulations but is not limited to functions of time.
