    Description:
 
        NOTE: It's the nutUSpaldingWallFunction implementation in OpenFOAM-v2006,
        which supports two additional inputs: maxIter and tolerance. In DAFoam,
        we need to make sure this boundary condition provides as accurate as
        possible boundary values, so the default values are maxIter = 1000
        and tolerance = 1e-14. If this causes very slow simulations, 
        decrease maxIter or increate tolerance. 
 
        This boundary condition provides a wall constraint on the turbulent
        viscosity, i.e. \c nut, based on velocity, i.e. \c U. Using Spalding's
        law gives a continuous \c nut profile to the wall.
     
            \f[
                y^+ = u^+ + \frac{1}{E} \left[exp(\kappa u^+) - 1 - \kappa u^+\,
                    - 0.5 (\kappa u^+)^2 - \frac{1}{6} (\kappa u^+)^3\right]
            \f]
     
        where
        \vartable
            y^+     | Non-dimensional position
            u^+     | Non-dimensional velocity
            \kappa  | von Kármán constant
        \endvartable
 
 
    Usage
        Example of the boundary condition specification:
        \verbatim
        <patchName>
        {
            // Mandatory entries (unmodifiable)
            type            nutUSpaldingWallFunction;
     
            // Optional entries (unmodifiable)
            maxIter         100;
            tolerance       1e-8;
     
            // Optional (inherited) entries
            ...
        }
        \endverbatim
     
        where the entries mean:
        \table
          Property  | Description                         | Type   | Req'd  | Dflt
          type      | Type name: nutUBlendedWallFunction  | word   | yes    | -
          maxIter   | Number of Newton-Raphson iterations | label  | no     | 1000
          tolerance | Convergence tolerance               | scalar | no     | 1e-14
        \endtable
     
        The inherited entries are elaborated in:
          - \link nutWallFunctionFvPatchScalarField.H \endlink
  
    Note
        - Suffers from non-exact restart since \c correctNut() (called through
        \c turbulence->validate) returns a slightly different value every time
        it is called. This is since the seed for the Newton-Raphson iteration
        uses the current value of \c *this (\c =nut ).
        - This can be avoided by overriding the tolerance. This also switches on
        a pre-detection whether the current nut already satisfies the turbulence
        conditions and if so does not change it at all. This means that the nut
        only changes if it 'has really changed'. This probably should be used with
        a tight tolerance, to make sure to kick every iteration, e.g.
            maxIter     100;
            tolerance   1e-7;
