Feature/high order vtu output

Edward Laughton requested to merge feature/High-order-VTU-output into master

Issue/feature addressed

VTK output was manually written, which is slow and results in large uncompressed files

Proposed solution

Adds a VTK output option using the VTK library

Implementation

Renamed old output to OutputVtkLegacy, implemented a new OutputVtk which makes use of the VTK library to achieve a number of things such as custom compression levels 1-9, high order VTK output, multiblock output, cached mesh when using filters.

Supports:

  • Old linear: Whatever it was before
  • New linear: 1D, 2D, 3D, 3DH1D (cached mesh when filter FieldConvert)
  • High order: 1D, 2D, 3D except pyramids (cached mesh when filter FieldConvert)
  • Multi-block: 1D, 2D, 3D

Tests
