83bae2efd3 functionObjects: Renamed dictionary entry 'functionObjectLibs' -> 'libs'
This changes simplifies the specification of functionObjects in
controlDict and is consistent with the 'libs' option in controlDict to
load special solver libraries.

Support for the old 'functionObjectLibs' name is supported for backward compatibility.

6164c2f262 Standardized the naming of functions which control the writing of fields etc.
to have the prefix 'write' rather than 'output'

So outputTime() -> writeTime()

but 'outputTime()' is still supported for backward-compatibility.

Also removed the redundant secondary-writing functionality from Time
which has been superseded by the 'writeRegisteredObject' functionObject.

c983670c91 functionObjects: Changed options 'outputControl' -> 'writeControl' and 'outputInterval' -> 'writeInterval'
for consistency with the time controls in controlDict and to avoid
unnecessary confusion.  All code and tutorials have been updated.

The old names 'outputControl' and 'outputInterval' are but supported for
backward compatibility but deprecated.

0fb6a01280 fluxRequired: Added setFluxRequired function to fvSchemes class
Added calls to setFluxRequired for p, p_rgh etc. in all solvers which
avoids the need to add fluxRequired entries in fvSchemes dictionaries.

f7e4d0a110 MULES: nLimiterIter and smoothLimiter are now user-input via the corresponding fvSolution sub-dict
nLimiterIter: Number of iterations during limiter construction
    3 (default) is sufficient for 3D simulations with a Courant number 0.5 or so
    For larger Courant numbers larger values may be needed but this is
    only relevant for IMULES and CMULES

smoothLimiter: Coefficient to smooth the limiter to avoid "diamond"
    staggering patters seen in regions of low particle phase-fraction in
    fluidised-bed simulations.

    The default is 0 as it is not needed for all simulations.
    A value of 0.1 is appropriate for fluidised-bed simulations.
    The useful range is 0 -> 0.5.
    Values larger than 0.5 may cause excessive smearing of the solution.

50ada7c994 blockMesh: Change default location of blockMeshDict from constant/polyMesh to system
For multi-region cases the default location of blockMeshDict is now system/<region name>

If the blockMeshDict is not found in system then the constant directory
is also checked providing backward-compatibility

f5bb944965 twoPhaseEulerFoam: Improved handling of velocity/flux boundary conditions
Updated tutorials to converge pressure during PIMPLE loop to avoid
phase-fraction unboundedness which limits thermodynamics convergence.
