 Notes:
 When you have specified to use a coarse `DM`, the communicator used to create the sub-KSP within `PCTELESCOPE`
 will be that of the coarse `DM`. Hence the flags -pc_telescope_reduction_factor and
 -pc_telescope_subcomm_type will no longer have any meaning.
 It is required that the communicator associated with the parent (fine) and the coarse `DM` are of different sizes.
 An error will occur of the size of the communicator associated with the coarse `DM`
 is the same as that of the parent `DM`.
 Furthermore, it is required that the communicator on the coarse DM is a sub-communicator of the parent.
 This will be checked at the time the preconditioner is setup and an error will occur if
 the coarse DM does not define a sub-communicator of that used by the parent DM.

 The particular Telescope setup invoked when using a coarse DM is agnostic with respect to the type of
 the `DM` used (e.g. it supports `DMSHELL`, `DMPLEX`, etc).

 Support is currently only provided for the case when you are using `KSPSetComputeOperators()`

 The user is required to compose a function with the parent DM to facilitate the transfer of fields (`Vec`) between the different decompositions defined by the fine and coarse `DM`s.
 In the user code, this is achieved via
.vb
   {
     DM dm_fine;
     PetscObjectCompose((PetscObject)dm_fine,"PCTelescopeFieldScatter",your_field_scatter_method);
   }
.ve
 The signature of the user provided field scatter method is
.vb
   PetscErrorCode your_field_scatter_method(DM dm_fine,Vec x_fine,ScatterMode mode,DM dm_coarse,Vec x_coarse);
.ve
 The user must provide support for both mode = `SCATTER_FORWARD` and mode = `SCATTER_REVERSE`.
 `SCATTER_FORWARD` implies the direction of transfer is from the parent (fine) `DM` to the coarse `DM`.

 Optionally, the user may also compose a function with the parent DM to facilitate the transfer
 of state variables between the fine and coarse `DM`s.
 In the context of a finite element discretization, an example state variable might be
 values associated with quadrature points within each element.
 A user provided state scatter method is composed via
.vb
   {
     DM dm_fine;
     PetscObjectCompose((PetscObject)dm_fine,"PCTelescopeStateScatter",your_state_scatter_method);
   }
.ve
 The signature of the user provided state scatter method is
.vb
   PetscErrorCode your_state_scatter_method(DM dm_fine,ScatterMode mode,DM dm_coarse);
.ve
 `SCATTER_FORWARD` implies the direction of transfer is from the fine `DM` to the coarse `DM`.
 The user is only required to support mode = `SCATTER_FORWARD`.
 No assumption is made about the data type of the state variables.
 These must be managed by the user and must be accessible from the `DM`.

 Care must be taken in defining the user context passed to `KSPSetComputeOperators()` which is to be
 associated with the sub-`KSP` residing within `PCTELESCOPE`.
 In general, `PCTELESCOPE` assumes that the context on the fine and coarse `DM` used with
 `KSPSetComputeOperators()` should be "similar" in type or origin.
 Specifically the following rules are used to infer what context on the sub-`KSP` should be.

 First the contexts from the `KSP` and the fine and coarse `DM`s are retrieved.
 Note that the special case of a `DMSHELL` context is queried.

.vb
   DMKSPGetComputeOperators(dm_fine,&dmfine_kspfunc,&dmfine_kspctx);
   DMGetApplicationContext(dm_fine,&dmfine_appctx);
   DMShellGetContext(dm_fine,&dmfine_shellctx);

   DMGetApplicationContext(dm_coarse,&dmcoarse_appctx);
   DMShellGetContext(dm_coarse,&dmcoarse_shellctx);
.ve

 The following rules are then enforced:

 1. If dmfine_kspctx = NULL, then we provide a NULL pointer as the context for the sub-KSP:
 `KSPSetComputeOperators`(sub_ksp,dmfine_kspfunc,NULL);

 2. If dmfine_kspctx != NULL and dmfine_kspctx == dmfine_appctx,
 check that dmcoarse_appctx is also non-NULL. If this is true, then:
 `KSPSetComputeOperators`(sub_ksp,dmfine_kspfunc,dmcoarse_appctx);

 3. If dmfine_kspctx != NULL and dmfine_kspctx == dmfine_shellctx,
 check that dmcoarse_shellctx is also non-NULL. If this is true, then:
 `KSPSetComputeOperators`(sub_ksp,dmfine_kspfunc,dmcoarse_shellctx);

 If neither of the above three tests passed, then `PCTELESCOPE` cannot safely determine what
 context should be provided to `KSPSetComputeOperators()` for use with the sub-`KSP`.
 In this case, an additional mechanism is provided via a composed function which will return
 the actual context to be used. To use this feature you must compose the "getter" function
 with the coarse `DM`, e.g.
.vb
   {
     DM dm_coarse;
     PetscObjectCompose((PetscObject)dm_coarse,"PCTelescopeGetCoarseDMKSPContext",your_coarse_context_getter);
   }
.ve
 The signature of the user provided method is
.vb
   PetscErrorCode your_coarse_context_getter(DM dm_coarse,void **your_kspcontext);
.ve

   Notes:
   Assuming that the parent preconditioner `PC` is defined on a communicator c, this implementation
   creates a child sub-communicator (c') containing fewer MPI ranks than the original parent preconditioner `PC`.
   The preconditioner is deemed telescopic 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 ranks which will be idle during the application of this preconditioner.
   Additionally, in comparison with `PCREDUNDANT`, `PCTELESCOPE` can utilize an attached `DM`.

   The default type of the sub `KSP` (the `KSP` defined on c') is `KSPPREONLY`.

   There are three setup mechanisms for `PCTELESCOPE`. Features support by each type are described below.
   In the following, we will refer to the operators B and B', these are the Bmat provided to the `KSP` on the
   communicators c and c' respectively.

   [1] Default setup
   The sub-communicator c' is created via `PetscSubcommCreate()`.
   Explicitly defined nullspace and near nullspace vectors will be propagated from B to B'.
   Currently there is no support define nullspaces via a user supplied method (e.g. as passed to `MatNullSpaceSetFunction()`).
   No support is provided for `KSPSetComputeOperators()`.
   Currently there is no support for the flag -pc_use_amat.

   [2] `DM` aware setup
   If a `DM` is attached to the `PC`, it is re-partitioned on the sub-communicator c'.
   c' is created via `PetscSubcommCreate()`.
   Both the Bmat 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 explicitly defined nullspace or near nullspace vectors attached to the original Bmat operator (B) are extracted, re-partitioned and set on the re-partitioned Bmat operator (B').
   Currently there is no support define nullspaces via a user supplied method (e.g. as passed to `MatNullSpaceSetFunction()`).
   Support is provided for `KSPSetComputeOperators()`. The user provided function and context is propagated to the sub `KSP`.
   This is fragile since the user must ensure that their user context is valid for use on c'.
   Currently there is no support for the flag -pc_use_amat.

   [3] Coarse `DM` setup
   If a `DM` (dmfine) is attached to the `PC`, dmfine is queried for a "coarse" `DM` (call this dmcoarse) via `DMGetCoarseDM()`.
   `PCTELESCOPE` will interpret the coarse `DM` as being defined on a sub-communicator of c.
   The communicator associated with dmcoarse will define the c' to be used within `PCTELESCOPE`.
   `PCTELESCOPE` will check that c' is in fact a sub-communicator of c. If it is not, an error will be reported.
   The intention of this setup type is that` PCTELESCOPE` will use an existing (e.g. user defined) communicator hierarchy, say as would be
   available with using multi-grid on unstructured meshes.
   This setup will not use the command line options -pc_telescope_reduction_factor or -pc_telescope_subcomm_type.
   Any explicitly defined nullspace or near nullspace vectors attached to the original Bmat operator (B) are extracted, scattered into the correct ordering consistent with dmcoarse and set on B'.
   Currently there is no support define nullspaces via a user supplied method (e.g. as passed to `MatNullSpaceSetFunction()`).
   There is no general method to permute field orderings, hence only `KSPSetComputeOperators()` is supported.
   The user must use `PetscObjectComposeFunction()` with dmfine to define the method to scatter fields from dmfine to dmcoarse.
   Propagation of the user context for `KSPSetComputeOperators()` on the sub `KSP` is attempted by querying the `DM` contexts associated with dmfine and dmcoarse. Alternatively, the user may use `PetscObjectComposeFunction()` with dmcoarse to define a method which will return the appropriate user context for `KSPSetComputeOperators()`.
   Currently there is no support for the flag -pc_use_amat.
   This setup can be invoked by the option -pc_telescope_use_coarse_dm or by calling `PCTelescopeSetUseCoarseDM`(pc,`PETSC_TRUE`);
   Further information about the user-provided methods required by this setup type are described here `PCTelescopeSetUseCoarseDM()`.

   Developer Notes:
   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 communicator used within the telescoping preconditioner is defined by a `PetscSubcomm` using the INTERLACED
   creation routine by default (this can be changed with -pc_telescope_subcomm_type). 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 and near nullspaces which are attached to the B operator.
   In the case where B has a (near) nullspace attached, the (near) nullspace vectors are extracted from B and mapped into
   a new (near) nullspace, defined on the sub-communicator, which is attached to B' (the B operator which was scattered to c')

   The telescoping preconditioner can re-partition an attached DM if it is a `DMDA` (2D or 3D -
   support for 1D `DMDA`s is not provided). If a `DMDA` is found, a topologically equivalent `DMDA` is created on c'
   and this new `DM` is attached the sub `KSP`. The design of telescope is such that it should be possible to extend support
   for re-partitioning other to DM's (e.g. `DMPLEX`). The user can supply a flag to ignore attached DMs.
   Alternatively, user-provided re-partitioned DMs can be used via -pc_telescope_use_coarse_dm.

   With the default setup mode, B' is defined by fusing rows (in order) associated with MPI ranks common to c and c'.

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

   Limitations/improvements include the following.
   `VecPlaceArray()` could be used within `PCApply()` to improve efficiency and reduce memory usage.
   A unified mechanism to query for user contexts as required by `KSPSetComputeOperators()` and `MatNullSpaceSetFunction()`.

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

   Mapping of vectors (default setup mode) is performed in the following way.
   Suppose the parent communicator size was 4, and we set a reduction factor of 2; this 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-communicator in the following way.
   [1] Given a vector x defined on communicator c

.vb

   ------- ----------------------------------------
        0   [  0.0,  1.0,  2.0,  3.0,  4.0,  5.0 ]

   The entries on rank 1 and 3 (ranks which do not have a color = 0 in c') have no values
