* Fix copy-paste error that led to legitimate copies throwing a bad_variant_access exception.
* Fix exception safety for the case when an error thrown in copy assignment takes the lhs to valueless.
* Fix wrong valueless semantics associated with an exception being thrown during move assignment.
* Add unit tests that exercise these issues.

Fixes #1136.

Update flat_cell_builder docs and add deprecation warning.

Addresses #1129.

* Add `equal_range()` method to `pw_elements`.
* Simplify `embed_pwlin`, `place_pwlin` implementations, in particular the handling of zero-length branches.
* Scale segment positions in `embed_pwlin` by divding by branch_length, instead of multiplying by the reciprocal, as the latter is a false economy after all the caveats that need to be checked to preserve ordering and bounds.
* Add new method `place_pwlin::all_at()`, which gives all the points that correspond to a single `mlocation`.
* Add new method `place_pwlin::all_segments()`, providing the set of segments and/or partial-segments that correspond to an extent.
* Add new method `place_pwlin::segments()`, which provides a minimal set of segments and/or partial-segments that map onto an extent.
* Extend unit tests to suit.

Fixes #1116 and #1068.

This PR adds a bunch of high-level docs for concepts related to single cell models.
  * morphologies
  * labels (region and locset expressions)
  * mechanisms
  * cable cells

It adds some python scripts to the `doc` path, which are called during documentation building to generate images of cell morphologies, regions and locsets that are generated in a separate script that uses the Arbor Python API.

The docs are not complete: the cable cell and mechanism docs are unfinished, and the tutorial section needs to build on these concepts to give more detailed step by step examples.

New PR post master rollback; squashed and rebased, but reprises #1111.

* Add (forward) ordered forest implementation, tests.
* Add `segment` region expression; to ease implementation, `msegment` now also knows its own id.
* Add `stitch_builder` and `stitched_morphology`. A stitch corresponds to a labelled, linearly-interpolated segment which can be attached at any point along a parent stitch. A `stitched_morphology` takes a `stitch_builder` object and constructs a segment tree and morphology, and provides a dictionary of stitch labels to segment indices and region expressions.
* Add `import` method for `label_dict`, so that the label dictionary returned by `stitched_morphology` can be merged with an existing dictionary.
* Add section on stitch builder etc. to cable cell docs.
* Update cable cell docs to remove out of date info and to provide some context.
* Describe ordered forest datastructure and interface in a long comment at the...

* Add `get_probe_metadata` method to `simulator` that forwards probe metadata queries to appropriate cell group, via new interface method in cell group base class.
* Replace `gid_to_local_` map in simulator implementation with a map that takes gid to local cell index _and_ local cell group index.
* Move scheduler association map mutex into the cell group where it is being used (i.e. `mc_cell_group`).
* Add generic (`visit`-able) interface to specifc fvm-probe types for accessing metadata via `any_ptr`.
* Implement (override) `get_probe_metadata` method for `mc_cell_group`.
* Use new cv policy API for LFP example discretization.
* Use new probe metadata API to simplify LFP example sampler callback.
* Add `on_components` locset expression that gives points a relative distance from the head of each component of a region.
* Simplify implementation of thingification of `ls::boundary`.

Fixes #1079 

Update the docs landing page and add pip install from git.

Fixes #1118

The `vec_t_` time vector is already available to the mechanisms, but not exposed. It is indexed by `cell_index` instead of directly by the `node_index` (`vec_t[vec_ci_[node_index_[i]]]`). This kind of indexing was previously unavailble. It has not been added to the printers. 
This PR also includes some cleanup in the vectorized code printer. 

Address #1109

Guide Python users to the Python installation steps early in the installation guide.

Added Issue templates to help guide usage-related questions towards 'Discussions'.

Update all Python scripts used during build/testing/running Arbor to explicitly use Python 3.

* Check for self-assignment in `device_reference::operator=(const device_reference&)`.
* Return reference to self in ` device_reference::operator=(const device_reference&)`.
* Prohibit default construction of `device_reference` and clarify copy semantics.

The tiniest of fixes: mechanisms/generate_catalogue had a bang line incompatible with newer Linux platforms without python.

* Correct hash implementation.
* Add ==, != comparisons.

Fixes #1093

Rename import method to avoid Python keyword collision.

This is copied from DLA Future. It should set the CI status on the commit from the PR instead of just on the Bors commit. This way the gitlab CI status also appears in the checks section below the PR.

Fix a Python example that was out of date.

Make all pointer arguments to kernels `__restrict__` to avoid unnecessary loads.

* Add plot script for rending example output to match that from NEURON demo.

Remove a redundant copy in favor of a swap operation for a gain in performance;
especially on GPU since copies are synchronous. Similarly, instead of solving the 
linear system into an intermediate array, write output directly into the target.

Add a new catalogue comprising optimised version of some of the mechanisms commonly used in models of the Allen Cell Types Database, eg http://celltypes.brain-map.org/mouse/experiment/electrophysiology/323535089.
This made required extending modcc to some new NMODL features, as well as to expose some optimisations.

In addition clean up the default catalogue by moving test mechanisms to their proper place in the unit tests.

Update core library:
* support derivation of named mechanisms in catalogue from a string description of the parent.
* fix bug in radois_ge region expression that was finding region_lt.
* fix test for radius_ge region expression

Add support for mechanism, global properties and catalogue shenanigans to python wrapper

* Guard `event_generator` implicit constructor with type test.
* Fix linking error from use of `empty_generator` by replacing pointers to `no_event` with nullptr.
* Clarify `regular_generator` semantics in comment.
* Add unit test for checking.

Fixes #1066

* Add new `isometry` class representing a direct Euclidean isometry comprising a rotation and translation. Translations are always taken with respect to absolute coordinates, but rotations are composed with respect to intrinsic coordinates.
* Add new `place_pwlin` class, that takes a morphology and an isometry, and answers location queries: where in space does a particular `mlocation` lie?
* Split out (some of) the common code between `place_pwlin` and `embed_pwlin`.
* Add equality operator to `mpoint`.

This functionality is added to aid the presentation of the local field potential example.

Update `mech_vec.cpp` to work with the new API 
Print profiler summary in the ring example

* Make recipe return probes as a vector.
* Remove `probe_id` from `probe_info`.
* Rename `fvm_probe_info` to `fvm_probe_data` (everything was being called info, and it was getting confusing).
* Make `probe_association_map` specific to `mc_cell_group`/`fvm_lowered_cell`.
* Change probe_association_map representation: unordered map for probe_id -> tag; unordered multimap for probe_id -> fvm_probe_data. This allows multiple probes to be associated with the same probe id.
* Call sampler callback separately for each probe with the same probe_id.
* Replace location-based probes with locset equivalents.
* Add index for probes sharing a probe id.
* Bundle all probe metadata (id, tag, index, probe-specific meta) into `probe_metadata` struct for passing to sampler callbacks.
* Change simple_sampler to work on `trace_vector`, a vector of `trace_data`. The _i_th element is the data from probe with index i.
* Consolidate hash composition and `std::hash` specialization code in new header.
* Update python lib for new API.
* Update tests and examples for new recipe, internal probe, and simple_sampler APIs.
* Update docs to suit.

* Tidy synapse collation code.
* Further reduce synapse collation allocations.

Fix for #1055

* Add ranges in STATE blocks of the form FROM ... TO ...
* Unit test for the above
* Add type check for <..., ...> ranges
