 * @class   vtkPlot3DMetaReader
 * @brief   reads meta-files points to PLOT3D files
 *
 * The main goal of this reader is to make it easy to read PLOT3D files,
 * specifically time series of PLOT3D files. PLOT3D files can take many
 * different forms based on their content. Unfortunately, it is not a
 * self-describing format therefore the user needs to pass information
 * about the contents of the file to the reader. Normally, this is done
 * by setting a number of member variables. The goal of this reader is
 * to provide a simple format that enable the writer of the PLOT3D file
 * to describe its settings as well as group a number of files as a time
 * series. Note that for binary files, the auto-detect-format option,
 * which is on by default negates the need to specify most other option.
 * However, this reader is still very useful when trying to read file
 * series even for binary files. The format for this meta-file is very simple
 * and is based on JSON (there is no need to know anything about JSON to
 * understand this format). Below is an example with comments (followed by //)
 * that describe the format. Note that the PLOT3D file names are relative
 * to the location of the meta-file unless they start with a leading /.
 *
 * \verbatim
 * {
 * "auto-detect-format" : true // Tells the reader to try to figure out the format automatically.
 * Only works
 *                             // with binary file. This is on by default, negating the need for
 * most other
 *                             // options for binary files (format, byte-order, precision,
 * multi-grid,
 *                             // blanking, 2D).
 * "format" : "binary",  // Is this a binary or ascii file, values : binary, ascii
 * "byte-order" : "big", // Byte order for binary files, values : little, big (denoting little or
 * big endian) "precision" : 32,     // Precision of floating point values, can be 32 or 64 (bits)
 * "multi-grid" : false, // Is this a multi-grid file, values: true, false
 * "language" : "C",     // Which language was this file written in, values : C, fortran. This is
 *                       // used to determine if an binary PLOT3D file contains byte counts, used by
 *                       // Fortran IO routines.
 * "blanking" : false,   // Does this file have blanking information (iblanks), values : true, false
 * "2D" : false,         // Is this a 2D dataset, values : true, false
 * "R" : 8.314,          // The value of the gas constant, default is 1.0. Set this according to the
 * dimensions you use "gamma" : 1.4,        // Ratio of specific heats. Default is 1.4. "functions":
 * [ 110, 200, 201 ],  // Additional derived values to calculate. This is an array of integers
 * formatted
 *                                  // as [ value, value, value, ...]
 * "filenames" : [     // List of xyz (geometry) and q (value) file names along with the time
 * values.
 *                     // This is an array which contains items in the format:
 *                     // {"time" : values, "xyz" : "xyz file name", "q" : "q file name", "function"
 * : "function file name"}
 *                     // Note that q and function are optional. Also, you can repeat the same file
 * name for xyz or q
 *                     // if they don't change over time. The reader will not read files
 * unnecessarily. { "time" : 3.5, "xyz" : "combxyz.bin", "q" : "combq.1.bin", "function" :
 * "combf.1.bin" }, { "time" : 4.5, "xyz" : "combxyz.bin", "q" : "combq.2.bin", "function" :
 * "combf.2.bin" }
 * ],
 * "function-names" : ["density", "velocity_x", "temperature"]
 *                   // list of names of functions in function files
 * }
 * \endverbatim
 *
 * This reader leverages vtkMultiBlockPLOT3DReader to do the actual
 * reading so you may want to refer to the documentation of
 * vtkMultiBlockPLOT3DReader about the details of some of these
 * parameters including the function numbers for derived value
 * calculation.
