A new header named TypeList.h and the type lists have been redefined in
this new file. All the types have been renamed from `TypeListTag*` to
`TypeList*`. TypeListTag.h has been gutted to provide deprecated
versions of the old type list names.
There were also some other type lists that were changed from using the
old `ListTagBase` to the new `List`.
`vtkm::cont::testing` now initializes with logging enabled and support
for device being passed on the command line, `vtkm::testing` only
enables logging.
This commit adds several geometric constructs to vtk-m
in the `vtkm/Geometry.h` header. They may be used from
both the execution and control environments.
We also add methods to perform projection and Gram-Schmidt
orthonormalization to `vtkm/VectorAnalysis.h`.
See `docs/changelog/geometry.md` included in this commit
for more information.

We have been having a problem with one of the MSVC dashboards failing
the UnitTestVectorAnalysis test. The test just dies in the middle with
no indication of what problematic thing was run.
After playing with this for quite a while, I found that it could by
triggered exclusively in the Lerp test. I further found that if I
switched the order of the test and check Lerp the test worked. This is
strange behavior and leads me to believe one of the following is going
on:
1. There is an error such as an invalid memory access happening in
the VTK-m code that is sometimes corrupting the stack.
2. Somewhere there is an expression that has undefined behavior. Usually
it works OK, but some optimization sequence causes it to fail.
3. There is a bug in one of the compiler's optimizations.
It concerns me that I cannot identify exactly where the problem lies.
I've looked very hard at the vtkm::Vec and vtkm::Lerp code to try to find
possible problems, but I have not been able to find anything.
