Adds
Field.deposit_density(positions, values, weighting=LINEAR): it scatters the marker values into a zero copy of the field, exchanges the halos on a split field, divides by the node volumes and adds the result. With the productsw,w v,w v v, ... as components it gives the velocity moments of any order (n, n u, n, ...) in one deposit; the products come from mpiparticles (moment_values), so mpifield stays free of velocities.Field.node_volumes(): the volume each node collects, half a cell on a bounded edge.Field.on_gridtakesnum_ghost_points, so a split field can carry the halo a quadratic deposit needs.
