1c2093c8b3 Multi-phase solvers: Improved handling of inflow/outflow BCs in MULES
Avoids slight phase-fraction unboundedness at entertainment BCs and improved
robustness.

Additionally the phase-fractions in the multi-phase (rather than two-phase)
solvers are adjusted to avoid the slow growth of inconsistency ("drift") caused
by solving for all of the phase-fractions rather than deriving one from the
others.

1c687baa35 dynamicMotionSolverListFvMesh: New mesh-motion solver supporting multiple moving regions
e.g. the motion of two counter-rotating AMI regions could be defined:

dynamicFvMesh   dynamicMotionSolverListFvMesh;

solvers
(
    rotor1
    {
        solver solidBody;

        cellZone        rotor1;

        solidBodyMotionFunction  rotatingMotion;
        rotatingMotionCoeffs
        {
            origin        (0 0 0);
            axis          (0 0 1);
            omega         6.2832; // rad/s
        }
    }

    rotor2
    {
        solver solidBody;

        cellZone        rotor2;

        solidBodyMotionFunction  rotatingMotion;
        rotatingMotionCoeffs
        {
            origin        (0 0 0);
            axis          (0 0 1);
            omega         -6.2832; // rad/s
        }
    }
);

Any combination of motion solvers may be selected but there is no special
handling of motion interaction; the motions are applied sequentially and
potentially cumulatively.

To support this new general framework the solidBodyMotionFvMesh and
multiSolidBodyMotionFvMesh dynamicFvMeshes have been converted into the
corresponding motionSolvers solidBody and multiSolidBody and the tutorials
updated to reflect this change e.g. the motion in the mixerVesselAMI2D tutorial
is now defined thus:

dynamicFvMesh   dynamicMotionSolverFvMesh;

solver solidBody;

solidBodyCoeffs
{
    cellZone        rotor;

    solidBodyMotionFunction  rotatingMotion;
    rotatingMotionCoeffs
    {
        origin        (0 0 0);
        axis          (0 0 1);
        omega         6.2832; // rad/s
    }
}
