Detailed Description

A pure virtual class to provide size and rank information and a unique identifier for a fields.

The DataLayout class is used to (1) specify the rank and extents of fields, and (2) to provide a unique identifier that can be used to differentiate fields. For example suppose we want to store density at both the basis points and the quadrature points in a cell. If we use the same string name for the field in the FieldTag, the DataLayout could be used to differentiate the objects.

NOTE: We could probably just use an enumerated type here, but the DataLayout class allows users to derive and pass in auxiliary data via the tag.
