Const' declared instances of Vtr::Array do not protect the pointer held
privately by the class properly. In order to force the compiler to
protect this pointer, we removed all non-const accessors from Vtr::Array
(now renamed Vtr::ConstArray) and moved them to a child class (Vtr::Array),
which requires const_cast<> operators internally to allow access.
The change & renaming is then propagated to all internal dependencies.
- change error codes from situational to general (fatal / coding / run-time...)
- pull error functions from Osd into Far
- add a templated topology validation reporting system to Far::TopologyRefinerFactory
- fix fallout on rest of code-base
- split Far::PatchDescriptor into its own class (mirrors Far::PatchParam)
- hide PatchArray as a private internal structure
- add public accessors patterned after Far::TopologyRefiner (returning Vtr::Arrays)
- propagate new API to all dependent code
note: some direct table accessors have not been removed *yet* - see code for details
Sync'ing the 'dev' branch with the 'feature_3.0dev' branch at commit 68c6d11fc36761ae1a5e6cdc3457be16f2e9704a
The branch 'feature_3.0dev' is now locked and preserved for historical purposes.
Also:
- Add a _numVertices member to cpuSmoothNormalContext (for memory reset function)
- Fix memory reset function in cpuSmoothNormalContext (was performing redundant memsets)
- Add a resetMemory boolean to cpuSmoothNormalContext to make reset step optional (default is off)
