Rather than do a CastAndCall on all possible field types when calling a
worklet with two fields (where they all typically get cast to the same
type as the primary field), use the new mechanism with
ArrayHandleMultiplexer to create one code path.
Also update the ApplyPolicy to accept the Field type, which is used to
determine any additional storage types to support.

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
For polygon cell shapes (that are not triangles or quadrilaterals),
interpolations are done by finding the center point and creating a
triangle fan around that point. Previously, the gradient was computed in
the same way as interpolation: identifying the correct triangle and
computing the gradient for that triangle.
The problem with that approach is that makes the gradient discontinuous
at the boundaries of this implicit triangle fan. To make things worse,
this discontinuity happens right at each vertex where gradient
calculations happen frequently. This means that when you ask for the
gradient at the vertex, you might get wildly different answers based on
floating point imprecision.
Get around this problem by creating a small triangle around the point in
question, interpolating values to that triangle, and use that for the
gradient. This makes for a smoother gradient transition around these
internal boundaries.
Once #377 is implemented we won't need this, but for now we have to
use the serial connectivity tables while validating the OrientNormals
output. Ensure that the serial device can be used during the validation
stage.

The contour worklet test was experiencing normals that were set to NaN
due to problems with computing the gradient of the original field. It
was determined that the problem was caused by the clip filter creating
degenerate cells because the clip plane exactly intersected the points
of the mesh. Although a problem, we found that this behavior also exists
in existing tools like ParaView and VisIt. Thus, it sounds like a
problem to be pushed off to a later day. Instead, just move the plane a
little bit to get it into general position.
The gradient is malformed at the apex of a pyramid. To get around this,
steal a trick from the VTK source where in this case interpolate some
values a little bit into the interior of the cell.
Also expand the gradient worklet tests to include all cell types.
The `From` and `To` nomenclature for topology mapping has been confusing for
both users and developers, especially at lower levels where the intention of
mapping attributes from one element to another is easily conflated with the
concept of mapping indices (which maps in the exact opposite direction).
These identifiers have been renamed to `VisitTopology` and `IncidentTopology`
to clarify the direction of the mapping. The order in which these template
parameters are specified for `WorkletMapTopology` have also been reversed,
since eventually there may be more than one `IncidentTopology`, and having
`IncidentTopology` at the end will allow us to replace it with a variadic
template parameter pack in the future.
Other implementation details supporting these worklets, include `Fetch` tags,
`Connectivity` classes, and methods on the various `CellSet` classes (such as
`PrepareForInput` have also reversed their template arguments. These will need
to be cautiously updated.
The convenience implementations of `WorkletMapTopology` have been renamed for
clarity as follows:
```
WorkletMapPointToCell --> WorkletVisitCellsWithPoints
WorkletMapCellToPoint --> WorkletVisitPointsWithCells
```
The `ControlSignature` tags have been renamed as follows:
```
FieldInTo --> FieldInVisit
FieldInFrom --> FieldInMap
FromCount --> IncidentElementCount
FromIndices --> IncidentElementIndices
```
The Invoker is a control side object that handles the construction
of the relevant worklet dispatcher. Moving it to control makes it
obvious that it isn't an algorithm itself but a way to launch
worklets.
