/** \brief BDF2 (Backward-Difference-Formula-2) time stepper.
 *
 *  For the implicit ODE system, \f$f(\dot{x},x,t) = 0\f$,
 *  the solution, \f$\dot{x}\f$ and \f$x\f$, is determined using a
 *  solver (e.g., a non-linear solver, like NOX).  This stepper allows
 *  for a variable time-step, \f$\Delta t\f$.  It is a 2-step method.
 *
 *  <b> Algorithm </b>
 *   - For \f$n=0\f$, set the initial condition, \f$x_0\f$.
 *   - For \f$n=1\f$, use a one-step startup stepper, e.g., Backward Euler
 *     or RK4.  The default startup stepper is 'IRK 1 Stage Theta Method'
 *     which second order.
 *   - For \f$n>1\f$, solve for \f$x_n\f$ via
 *       \f$ f\left(x_n, \dot{x}_n, t_n\right) = 0\f$
 *  where \f$
 *    \dot{x}_{n} = \frac{2\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}{\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}
 *                  \left[ \frac{x_n-x_{n-1}}{\tau_n}\right]
 *                -  \frac{\tau_n}{\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}
 *                   \left[ \frac{x_{n-1}-x_{n-2}}{\tau_{n-1}}\right], \f$
 *  and \f$\Delta t_n = \tau_n = t_n - t_{n-1}\f$.
 *   - \f$\dot{x}_n \leftarrow
 *    \dot{x}_{n} = \frac{2\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}{\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}
 *                  \left[ \frac{x_n-x_{n-1}}{\tau_n}\right]
 *                -  \frac{\tau_n}{\tau_n + \tau_{n-1}}
 *                   \left[ \frac{x_{n-1}-x_{n-2}}{\tau_{n-1}}\right], \f$
 *
 *  The First-Step-As-Last (FSAL) principle is not needed BDF2.
 *  The default is to set useFSAL=false, however useFSAL=true will also work
 *  but have no affect (i.e., no-op).
