/*
Build a few basic tools to help with partitioned domains.

1)
On each processor, have a DomainExchangerTopology.
This is a doubly-connected edge list which enumerates the
communication paths between connected processors. By numbering
these paths we can always uniquely assign message identifers.

        edge
         10
proc  --------->  proc
 0    <--------    1
         11
        twin

Eg: Proc 0 send to proc 1 with message id is 10. To recieve the correct
message, proc 1 looks for the edge connected to proc 0, and then the
messgae id comes from the twin of that edge

2)
A DomainExchangerArrayPacker.
A little function which given a piece of data, will memcpy the data into
an array (which will be sent to procs) into the correct place.

On Proc 1 we sent data to procs 0,2,3. The data is on different lengths.
All data gets jammed into single array. Need to "jam" data into correct locations
The Packer knows how much is to going to each processor and keeps track of the inserts
so as to avoid ever packing TOO much into one slot, and inevatbly corrupting some memory

data to 0    data to 2       data to 3

|--------|-----------------|--|


User has to unpack message themselves. I can get you the pointer for each i
entry, but you'll have to cast it to the appropriate data type.




Phase A: Build topology

Phase B: Define message lengths

Phase C: Pack data

Phase D: Send data
