[aspect-devel] cylindrical rigid body rotation

[Ian Rose]

Oops, sorry, missed that part.  I'm attaching
interpolate_onto_velocity_system().  Note that I have this rather than the
deal.ii version of the function because deal.ii can throw an exception that
the pressure element is non-interpolating (even though we are really only
interested in the velocity part).

I call the functions for computing the nullspace just before the solve, and
removing it just after.  Computing it should only be necessary if the mesh
has changed.

Cheers,
Ian
