Now that we have atomic free functions (e.g. `vtkm::AtomicAdd()`), we no
longer need special implementations for control and each execution
device. (Well, technically we do have special implementations for each,
but they are handled with compiler directives in the free functions.)
Convert the old atomic interface classes (`AtomicInterfaceControl` and
`AtomicInterfaceExecution`) to use the new atomic free functions. This
will allow us to test the new atomic functions everywhere that atomics
are used in VTK-m.
Once verified, we can deprecate the old atomic interface classes.
The buffer class encapsulates the movement of raw C arrays between
host and devices.
The `Buffer` class itself is not associated with any device. Instead,
`Buffer` is used in conjunction with a new templated class named
`DeviceAdapterMemoryManager` that can allocate data on a given
device and transfer data as necessary. `DeviceAdapterMemoryManager`
will eventually replace the more complicated device adapter classes
that manage data on a device.
The code in `DeviceAdapterMemoryManager` is actually enclosed in
virtual methods. This allows us to limit the number of classes that
need to be compiled for a device. Rather, the implementation of
`DeviceAdapterMemoryManager` is compiled once with whatever compiler
is necessary, and then the `RuntimeDeviceInformation` is used to
get the correct object instance.
The `ArrayHandleStreaming` class stems from an old research project
experimenting with bringing data from an `ArrayHandle` in parts and
overlapping device transfer and execution. It works, but only in very
limited contexts. Thus, it is not actually used today. Plus, the feature
requires global indexing to be permutated throughout the worklet
dispatching classes of VTK-m for no further reason.
Because it is not really used, there are other more promising approaches
on the horizon, and it makes further scheduling improvements difficult,
we are removing this functionality.

Marked the old versions of PrepareFor* that do not use tokens as
deprecated and moved all of the code to use the new versions that
require a token. This makes the scope of the execution object more
explicit so that it will be kept while in use and can potentially be
reclaimed afterward.
The old version of ExecutionObject (that only takes a device) is still
supported, but you will get a deprecated warning if that is what is
defined.
Supporing this also included sending vtkm::cont::Token through the
vtkm::cont::arg::Transport mechanism, which was a change that propogated
through a lot of code.
BitFields are:
- Stored in memory using a contiguous buffer of bits.
- Accessible via portals, a la ArrayHandle.
- Portals operate on individual bits or words.
- Operations may be atomic for safe use from concurrent kernels.
The new BitFieldToUnorderedSet device algorithm produces an ArrayHandle
containing the indices of all set bits, in no particular order.
The new AtomicInterface classes provide an abstraction into bitwise
atomic operations across control and execution environments and are used
to implement the BitPortals.

It should be possible to query a vtkm::cont::Timer without modifying it.
As such, its query functions (such as Stopped and GetElapsedTime) should
be const.
The timer class now is asynchronous and device independent. it's using an
similiar API as vtkOpenGLRenderTimer with Start(), Stop(), Reset(), Ready(),
and GetElapsedTime() function. For convenience and backward compability, Each
Start() function call will call Reset() internally and each GetElapsedTime()
function call will call Stop() function if it hasn't been called yet for keeping
backward compatibility purpose.
Bascially it can be used in two modes:
* Create a Timer without any device info. vtkm::cont::Timer time;
* It would enable timers for all enabled devices on the machine. Users can get a
specific elapsed time by passing a device id into the GetElapsedtime function.
If no device is provided, it would pick the maximum of all timer results - the
logic behind this decision is that if cuda is disabled, openmp, serial and tbb
roughly give the same results; if cuda is enabled it's safe to return the
maximum elapsed time since users are more interested in the device execution
time rather than the kernal launch time. The Ready function can be handy here
to query the status of the timer.
* Create a Timer with a device id. vtkm::cont::Timer time((vtkm::cont::DeviceAdapterTagCuda()));
* It works as the old timer that times for a specific device id.
The purpose of the TestBuild infrastructure was to confirm that
VTK-m didn't have any lexical issues when it was a pure header
only project. As we now move to have more compiled components
the need for this form of testing is mitigated. Combined
with the issue of TestBuilds causing MSVC issues, we should
just remove this infrastructure.
Having VTKM_EXEC on algorithms for CPU devices was problematic because
the algorithms were specific to the CPU, but during a CUDA compile it
would try to compile device code (for no reasons since it was never
called on a device).
Remove these identifiers for the idea that a device implementation knows
specifically what function modifiers to use and does not need the VTK-m
defined catch-alls.
The previous implementation of DeviceAdapterRuntimeDetector caused
multiple differing definitions of the same class to exist and
was causing the runtime device tracker to report CUDA as disabled
when it actually was enabled.
The ODR was caused by having a default implementation for
DeviceAdapterRuntimeDetector and a specific specialization for
CUDA. If a library had both CUDA and C++ sources it would pick up
both implementations and would have undefined behavior. In general
it would think the CUDA backend was disabled.
To avoid this kind of situation in the future I have reworked VTK-m
so that each device adapter must implement DeviceAdapterRuntimeDetector
for that device.

By hard coding the PrepareForDevice to know about all the different VTK-m
devices, we can have a single base class do the execution allocation, and not
have that logic repeated in each child class.
Added check for long double arrays, use TBB parallel_sort
Added radix sort instantiations for char16_t, char32_t, and
wchar_t. std::is_arithmetic<T> will evaluate to true for these
types.
Removed VTKM_CONT_EXPORT in DeviceAdapterAlgorithmTBB.h to try
and fix dll related error on Windows.
