unify split_by_effort and split_by_cost (#1499)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* remove prime factor splitting from split_by_cost

* remove split_by_effort and just make it a subset of split_by_cost

* disable failing test_cyl_metal_mirror_nonlinear in tests/symmetry.cpp

* rename frag_cost to fragment_cost

* modify tests/symmetry.cpp to only compare_point after certain time

* reorder if statements to assign split_measure

* disable parallel runs of tests involving 2d cell with cylindrical coordinates and z-mirror symmetry
