ENH: obtain fallback value for SCOTCH_VERSION from the header
COMP: add support for metis, scotch static libraries (eg, EasyBuild)
- just check WM_PROJECT_DIR instead.
- provide a fallback value when FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN might actually be needed.
Only strictly need FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN for scotch/metis decomposition, and
when these are actually supplied by ThirdParty.
All other ThirdParty dependencies are referenced by BOOST_ARCH_PATH etc.
Can therefore drop the FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN dependency for VTK-related
things, which do not use scotch/metis anyhow.
- Could be related to interrupted builds.
So if there are any parts of the build that rely on an explicit
'wmakeLnInclude', make sure that the contents are properly updated.

ENH: improved feedback from top-level Allwmake
- Report which section (libraries, applications) is being built.
- Provide final summary of date, version, etc, which can be helpful
for later diagnosis or record keeping.
- The -log=XXX option for Allwmake now accepts a directory name
and automatically appends an appropriate log name.
Eg,
./Allwmake -log=logs/ ->> logs/log.linux64GccDPInt32Opt
The default name is built from the value of WM_OPTIONS.

BUG: shell not exiting properly in combination with -log option
- the use of 'tee' causes the shell to hang around.
Added an explicit exit to catch this.
--
- Detecting the '-k' (-non-stop) option at the top-level Allwmake, which
may improve robustness.
- Explicit continue-on-error for foamyMesh (as optional component)
- unify format of script messages for better readability
COMP: reduce warnings when building Pstream (old-style casts in openmpi)
- Now that the metisDecomp uses the metis definition for float/double,
do not need to verify the scalar sizes.
Note:
- could drop precision qualifier for metis, scotch installation
(include, lib) as being unneeded, but it is simpler to keep them
and continue to use the FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN path
(in case other ThirdParty software is compiled with different
precisions).
- Follow similar pattern as per boost/CGAL with the '*-none' to disable,
and '*-system' for system installations.
Also support central non-ThirdParty installations by specifying the
version as "*-system", but also providing the fully qualified
*_ARCH_PATH too.
--
ENH: Verify label and scalar sizes used in the metis header.
- ensure they match with expected values, which can be obtained via
the OpenFOAM definitions for WM_LABEL_SIZE and WM_PRECISION_OPTION
- Only reference the FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN locations when linking.
The respective SCOTCH_ARCH_PATH/lib, METIS_ARCH_PATH/lib locations
either do not exist, or are possibly inconsistent and won't be
seen at run-time anyhow.
- Incorporate decompose/metisDecomp/Allwmake into the top-level
decompose/Allwmake
- redistributePar to have almost (complete) functionality of decomposePar+reconstructPar
- low-level distributed Field mapping
- support for mapping surfaceFields (including flipping faces)
- support for decomposing/reconstructing refinement data
- drop FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN variable in favour of FOAM_MPI from which
two different locations can be determined.
Previously there was something like this:
FOAM_MPI_LIBBIN = $FOAM_LIBBIN/openmpi-1.5.1
We now instead determine the locations from the FOAM_MPI directly:
FOAM_MPI=openmpi-1.5.1
$FOAM_LIBBIN/$FOAM_MPI -> OpenFOAM mpi-related
$FOAM_EXT_LIBBIN/$FOAM_MPI -> ThirdPary mpi-related
ENH: relocate ParaView libraries and plugins back under FOAM_LIBBIN
- as discussed with Mattijs
ptscotch - compiles into ptscotchDecomp. All thirdparty decompositionMethods
now moved out of decompositionMethods so add them explicitly to link line
for programs that need them (decomposePar, snappyHexMesh etc.)
