Purpose
My initial implementation of surface tracking in DVGeometryMulti had a few shortcomings. This PR makes the following improvements:
project
toaddPointSet
. This process only needs to happen once, not every time the projection occurs.ValueError
when removing points from the component-wide indices. Now the exception is caught, and the duplicate surface association is removed. This edge case can sometimes be avoided by tuning the surface tracking tolerances, but it is unavoidable in some cases. One example is if the upper and lower surfaces of a wing share points on the leading edge curve.Expected time until merged

Type of change
Testing
The current test includes surface tracking, which verifies that the refactoring did not break the primal or derivative computations. I added a separate test for shared points between tracked surfaces. This test fails without the fix and passes with the fix.
