Proposed changes

Creation of the class BinaryWithGravitationalWaves for XCTS solver, that computes initial data for binary black hole with realistic wave content.
The conformal data is obtained from a superposition of two boosted objects plus radiative content computed from Post-Newtonian Theory.

Code review checklist

  • The code is documented and the documentation renders correctly. Run
    make doc to generate the documentation locally into BUILD_DIR/docs/html.
    Then open index.html.
  • The code follows the stylistic and code quality guidelines listed in the
    code review guide.
  • The PR lists upgrade instructions and is labeled bugfix or
    new feature if appropriate.

Further comments

The radiative terms are still not computed (set to zero), they will be added in a later PR.
Supersedes past PR #5799.

- class to implement background data
- right now it implements superposition of two boosted black holes
- no radiative content is added for now

Additional BoundaryCondition class to set on inner boundaries: SuperposedBoostedBinary

- Dirichlet is implemented
- Neumann is not implemented (set to zero)
- Neumann will be implemented later
