Class
    Foam::exprTools::expressionEntry

Description
    Convert dictionary entry to a stringified expression.

    The general OpenFOAM dictionary expansions will result in
    space-separated values. For example,

    \verbatim
        origin (0.21 0 0.01);

        condition  "mag(pos() - $centre) < 0.5";
    \endverbatim

    this will expand to the following:

    \verbatim
        condition  "mag(pos() - (0.21 0 0.01)) < 0.5";
    \endverbatim

    For these type of expressions, we'd would like better control.
    Using instead the special expansions, we can add an effective
    type cast.

    \verbatim
        condition  "mag(pos() - $[(vector)centre]) < 0.5";
    \endverbatim

    which will expand to the following:

    \verbatim
        condition  "mag(pos() - vector(0.21,0,0.01)) < 0.5";
    \endverbatim
