Robert Maynard 838cb43375 Redesign RuntimeDeviceTracker and RuntimeDeviceInformation 
The RuntimeDeviceTracker had grown organically to handle multiple
different roles inside VTK-m. Now that we have device tags
that can be passed around at runtime, large portions of
the RuntimeDeviceTracker API aren't needed.

Additionally the RuntimeDeviceTracker had a dependency on knowing
the names of each device, and this wasn't possible
as that information was part of its self. Now we have moved that
information into RuntimeDeviceInformation and have broken
the recursion.

Redesign Runtime Device Tracking

The device tracking infrastructure in VTK-m has been redesigned to remove multiple redundant codes paths and to simplify reasoning about around what an instance of RuntimeDeviceTracker will modify.
