NearestPointLayeredSideDiffusiveFluxAverage

The domain is virtually divided into a number of layered subdivision according to the nearest points and the layering direction provided by users. And then the layered side average diffusive flux is computed for the sides on each individual subdivision separately.

Compute layered side diffusive flux averages for nearest-point based subdivisions
