 Defines a telescoping preconditioner

 Assuming that the parent preconditioner (PC) is defined on a communicator c, this implementation
 creates a child sub-communicator (c') containing less MPI processes than the original parent preconditioner (PC).

 During PCSetup, the B operator is scattered onto c'.
 Within PCApply, the RHS vector (x) is scattered into a redundant vector, xred (defined on c').
 Then KSPSolve() is executed on the c' communicator.

 The preconditioner is deemed telescopint as it only calls KSPSolve() on a single
 sub-communicator in contrast with PCREDUNDANT which calls KSPSolve() on N sub-communicators.
 This means there will be MPI processes within c, which will be idle during the application of this preconditioner.

 Comments:
 - The communicator used within the telescoping preconditioner is defined by a PetscSubcomm using the INTERLACED
 creation routine. We run the sub KSP on only the ranks within the communicator which have a color equal to zero.

 - The telescoping preconditioner is aware of nullspaces which are attached to the only B operator.
 In case where B has a n nullspace attached, these nullspaces vectors are extract from B and mapped into
 a new nullspace (defined on the sub-communicator) which is attached to B' (the B operator which was scattered to c')

 - The telescoping preconditioner is aware of an attached DM. In the event that the DM is of type DMDA (2D or 3D -
 1D support for 1D DMDAs is not provided), a new DMDA is created on c' (e.g. it is re-partitioned), and this new DM
 is attached the sub KSPSolve(). The design of telescope is such that it should be possible to extend support
 for re-partitioning other DM's (e.g. DMPLEX). The user can supply a flag to ignore attached DMs.

 - By default, B' is defined by simply fusing rows from different MPI processes

 - When a DMDA is attached to the parent preconditioner, B' is defined by: (i) performing a symmetric permuting of B
 into the ordering defined by the DMDA on c', (ii) extracting the local chunks via MatGetSubMatrices(), (iii) fusing the
 locally (sequential) matrices defined on the ranks common to c and c' into B' using MatCreateMPIMatConcatenateSeqMat()

 Limitations/improvements
 - VecPlaceArray could be used within PCApply() to improve efficiency and reduce memory usage.

 - The symmetric permutation used when a DMDA is encountered is performed via explicitly assmbleming a permutation matrix P,
 and performing P^T.A.P. Possibly it might be more efficient to use MatPermute(). I opted to use P^T.A.P as it appears
 VecPermute() does not supported for the use case required here. By computing P, I can permute both the operator and RHS in a
 consistent manner.

 - Mapping of vectors is performed this way
 Suppose the parent comm size was 4, and we set a reduction factor of 2, thus would give a comm size on c' of 2.
 Using the interlaced creation routine, the ranks in c with color = 0, will be rank 0 and 2.
 We perform the scatter to the sub-comm in the following way,
 [1] Given a vector x defined on comm c

   rank(c) : _________ 0 ______  ________ 1 _______  ________ 2 _____________ ___________ 3 __________
         x : [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11] [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17] [18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]

 scatter to xtmp defined also on comm c so that we have the following values

   rank(c) : ___________________ 0 ________________  _1_  ______________________ 2 _______________________  __3_
      xtmp : [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11] [ 6 ] [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23] [ 18 ]

 The entries on rank 1 and 3 (ranks which do not have a color = 0 in c') are filled with the first bs values living on that rank,
 where bs is the block size of the vector.

 [2] Copy the value from rank 0, 2 (indices with respect to comm c) into the vector xred which is defined on communicator c'.
 Ranks 0 and 2 are the only ranks in the subcomm which have a color = 0.

  rank(c') : ___________________ 0 _______________  ______________________ 1 _____________________
      xred : [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11] [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]

/*MC
   PCTELESCOPE - Runs a KSP solver on a sub-group of processors. MPI processes not in the sub-communicator are idle during the solve.

   Options Database:
+  -pc_telescope_reduction_factor <n> - factor to use communicator size by, for example if you are using 64 MPI processes and
   use an n of 4, the new sub-communicator will be 4 defined with 64/4 processes
-  -pc_telescope_ignore_dm <false> - flag to indicate whether an attached DM should be ignored

   Level: advanced

   Notes:
   The default KSP is PREONLY. If a DM is attached to the PC, it is re-partitioned on the sub-communicator.
   Both the B mat operator and the right hand side vector are permuted into the new DOF ordering defined by the re-partitioned DM.
   Currently only support for re-partitioning a DMDA is provided.
   Any nullspace attached to the original Bmat operator are extracted, re-partitioned and set on the repartitioned Bmat operator.
   KSPSetComputeOperators() is not propagated to the sub KSP.
   Currently there is no support for the flag -pc_use_amat

   Optimizations:
   (i) VecPlaceArray() could be used for scatters between the vectors defined on different sized communicators, thereby slightly reducing memory footprint;
   (ii) Memory re-use and faster set-up would follow if the result of P^T.A.P was not re-allocated each time PCSetUp_Telescope() was called (DMDA).
