Previously, `DataSet` managed `CoordinateSystem`s separately from `Field`s.
However, a `CoordinateSystem` is really just a `Field` with some special
attributes. Thus, coordiante systems are now just listed along with the
rest of the fields, and the coordinate systems are simply strings that
point back to the appropriate field. (This was actually the original
concept for `DataSet`, but the coordinate systems were separated from
fields for some now obsolete reasons.)
The `DynamicCellSet` class is now marked as deprecated (as is the header
that contains it), and all non-deprecated code is moved to its
`UnknownCellSet` replacement.
Also added a deprecation warning for the VariantArrayHandle.h header
file and deleted a couple inappropriate uses of it.
By removing the ability to have multiple CellSets in a DataSet
we can simplify the following things:
- Cell Fields now don't require a CellSet name when being constructed
- Filters don't need to manage what the active cellset is
The new and improved vtkm::cont::ColorTable provides a more feature complete
color table implementation that is modeled after
vtkDiscretizableColorTransferFunction. This class therefore supports different
color spaces ( rgb, lab, hsv, diverging ) and supports execution across all
device adapters.
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

accordingly.
