0008498: Restart files should be automatically found and used
Restart files should automatically be found and used, both for single processor and multiple processor files.

A stretch goal would be to allow the restart file name format to be flexible. For instance, to be able to use the name file.e-s0002.2.0 as well as file.e-s.0002.2.0.

An example of restart file names are:
file.e.2.0
file.e.2.1
file.e-s.0002.2.0
file.e-s.0002.2.1

Attached is an example of a multi file restart file group. I think they are good files, but am not sure.

No tags attached.

Note that the attached multipleProcessorRestartExample.zip has incorrect time stamps in the restarted file, so the reader will not work exactly as expected.

I also fixed an issue where vtkPExodusIIReader was grouping files that were really part of restarts rather than partitions.
