These mappers can be used to render cell sets as glyphs. The following
glyph types are available for scalar fields:
- Cube
- Sphere
- Axes

Virtual methods were used in the `MeshConnectivity` classes for the
internal ray casting system. However, using virtual methods in the
execution environment is being deprecated.
This change replaces the virtual object with an object containing a
`Variant`. The `Variant` holds one of the supported mesh connectivities
and selects the correct one at runtime rather than jumping into a
virtual method.
Visual Studio default toolset uses 32bit executables for compiling which
means that if it uses more than 4GB of memory per instance it crashes.
By moving the ConnectivityTracer into a separate compilation unit we
can help out the compiler.
This also improved compilation times and library size:
Old:
build time (j8): 48.62 real
lib size: 6.2MB
New:
build time (j8): 41.31 real
lib size: 5.0MB
Sandia National Laboratories recently changed management from the
