There were many tests that created code paths for every base and Vec
type that VTK-m supports (up to 4 components). Although this is
admirable, it is also excessive, and our compile times for the tests are
very long.
To shorten compile times, remove the TryAllTypes method. Replace it with
a version of TryTypes that uses a default list of "exemplar" set of
integers, floats, and Vecs.
The UnitTestParametricCoordinates test uses a pseudorandom number
generator to create some random set of parametric coordinates, convert
to world coordinates, and then back to parametric coordinates.
This has been working fine except that the world coordinate to parametric
coordinate conversion is not extremely precise for some cell shapes. (It
would not be cost effective to make it more precise.) Because of this,
the test_equal for this comparison has a pretty high threshold.
While looking at a dashboard I happened across a failure for this test.
It turns out that one of the parametric coordinates created for the
pyramid test for seed 1465529014 was just outside of this threshold, but
otherwise correct. I raised the threshold a little to try to prevent
this error.
ThreadIndicies constructor was templated on the invocation type, which created
thousand's of versions of that symbol which all had the same behavior. So now
remove that and move that logic into a Worklet function since it requires
the invocation info.
These asserts are consolidated into the unified Assert.h. Also made some
minor edits to add asserts where appropriate and a little bit of
reconfiguring as found.
All the other math functions are in the vtkm package. This one was in
vtkm::exec because it uses a callback method. This can be problematic on
CUDA the the declaration of NewtonsMethod does not match the callback
method. However, we now have a VTKM_SUPPRESS_EXEC_WARNINGS macro that
allows a VTKM_EXEC_CONT_EXPORT function (like NewtonsMethod) to call
either a VTKM_EXEC_EXPORT or VTKM_CONT_EXPORT without a warning.

As part of the work to reduce the number of copies of array handles the CUDA
backend was broken. The transportation of stack allocated classes to CUDA
relies on all member variables being value based, not references/pointers.
This correct the issue of sending references to host side memory to CUDA, at
the cost of two copies of the Invocation object.
When we move to C++11 we need to revisit this work and see if std::move
can help reduce the cost of these copies.
Scatter in worklets
Add the functionality to perform a scatter operation from input to output in a worklet invocation. This allows you to, for example, specify a variable amount of outputs generated for each input.

I noticed a failure in a dashboard run of UnitTestParametricCoordinates.
This test uses randomly generated numbers to test the behavior of some
cell shapes, and there was an instance that occured with seed 1447261681
that caused one of the comparisons to be just slightly larger than the
default tolerance but still within reasonable value.
I just increased the tolerance of that particular comparison. Hopefully
this will prevent all future failures.
The original workaround for inclusive_scan bugs in thrust 1.8 only solved the
issue for basic arithmetic types such as int, float, double. Now we go one
step further and fix the problem for all types.
The solution is to provide a proper implementation of destructive_accumulate_n
and make sure it exists before any includes of thrust occur.
Recent changes to algorithm implementations caused CellDerivative to be
called in a way such that it gave conversion warnings on some compilers.
Fix that.
