This change allows you to set a subclass of
vtkm::cont::ExecutionObjectBase as a functor
used in ArrayHandleTransform. This latter class will then detect that
the functor is an ExecObject and will call PrepareForExecution with the
appropriate device to get the actual Functor object.
This change allows you to use virtual objects and other device dependent
objects as functors for ArrayHandleTransform without knowing a priori
what device the portal will be used on.
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.

By setting the environment variable "VTKM_MANAGEDMEMO_DISABLED" to be 1,
users are able to disable CUDA managed memory even though the hardware is
capable of doing so.
Calls to 'cudaFree' block execution on all cuda devices. Reduce the number of
times this happens by having a deferred free mechanism that frees a pool
of pointers together when a threshold is reached.
Especially helpful during virtual object transfers that requires a few small
allocations and frees.
The original design of invoke and the transport infrastructure
relied on the implementation behavior of vtkm::cont types
such as ArrayHandle that used an internal shared_ptr to managed
state. This allowed passing by value instead of passing by
non-const ref when needing to transfer information to the device.
As VTK-m adds support for classes that use virtuals the ability
to pass by base pointer type allows for us to invoke worklets
using a base type without the risk of type slicing.
Additional by moving over to a non-const ref Invocation we
can update all transports that have 'output' to now be
by ref and therefore support types that can't be copied while
being 'more' correct.
1. Have a per-thread pinned array for cuda errors
2. Check for errors before scheduling new tasks and at explicit sync points
3. Remove explicit synchronizations from most places

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.
When copying small arrays from cpu memory to pascal memory we would
see subsequent kernels fail as the memory transfer hadn't finished.
This is a bug as each stream should act like a FIFO queue. So
for now when encountering this use case we explicitly synchronize
after the memcpy.
This means that we not only setup the runtime device tracker
to force the intended device, it also means making sure
the default device is the error device.
