Description
    Provides functions smooth spread and sweep which use the FaceCellWave
    algorithm to smooth and redistribute the first field argument.

    smooth:
        smooths the field by ensuring the values in neighbouring cells are
        at least coeff* the cell value.

    spread:
        redistributes the field by spreading the maximum value within the
        region defined by the value (being between alphaMax and alphaMin)
        and gradient of alpha (where the difference between the values in
        neighbouring cells is larger than alphaDiff).

    sweep:
        redistributes the field by sweeping the maximum value where the
        gradient of alpha is large (where the difference between the values
        in neighbouring cells is larger than alphaDiff) away from that
        starting point of the sweep.

    spreadSource:
        spread a source field (mDotIn) for two phase multiphase using
        a laplacian operator and diffusivity D.
        The spread source (mDotOut) is distributed from alpha1 < cutoff
        to alpha1 > 1 - cutoff, and it is zero across the interface
