The collection of connectivity algorithms had a couple of inefficiencies.
By moving to using WorkId we can remove a couple of arrays of the same size
as the input domain. In addition by moving to using atomics we can remove
an bool output array with a size equivalent to the input domain and
a call to reduce.
VTK-m has been updated to replace old per device worklet testing executables with a device
dependent shared library so that it's able to accept a device adapter
at runtime.
Meanwhile, it updates the testing infrastructure APIs. vtkm::cont::testing::Run
function would call ForceDevice when needed and if users need the device
adapter info at runtime, RunOnDevice function would pass the adapter into the functor.
Optional Parser is bumped from 1.3 to 1.7.
Rather than force all dispatchers to be templated on a device adapter,
instead use a TryExecute internally within the invoke to select a device
adapter.
Because this removes the need to declare a device when invoking a
worklet, this commit also removes the need to declare a device in
several other areas of the code.
ImageConnectivity worklet implements a parallel connected component
labeling algorithm for 2D structured grids/images. For each pixel,
it search for the pixel's 6 neighbors and classify them as the
same connected component if their corresponding "color" field have
the same value.
