Tool: update AMReX dependency (#1710)
* Tool: update AMReX dependency We currently pull the `development` branch of AMReX in CMake builds. This is problematic in central workflows: - checking out a release might not compile - manual intervention is needed by users - builds are not as reproducibile as they could be - CI fails in a surprising wary in WarpX if a temporary bug is lands in AMReX' `development` Instead, we can bump the AMReX requirement periodically in a PR. This migh be the case when we: - need new features or bug fixes - do a release Manual updates guarantee that we see problems with updates from AMReX in the moment they are introduced - during a PR that changes the dependency to AMReX. * Tool: update PICSAR dependency See AMReX' updater description. * Docs: Dependencies & Releases Update and add workflows. * PICSAR & AMReX: Bump Version to HEAD Bump the PICSAR and AMReX versions to the latest head. Executed with: ``` ./Tools/Release/updateAMReX.py ./Tools/Release/updatePICSAR.py ``` * Python Tools: Cleanup * Fix typos Co-authored-by: Luca Fedeli <luca.fedeli@for.unipi.it> Co-authored-by: Luca Fedeli <luca.fedeli@for.unipi.it>

-Create a new Github release
----------------------------
-
-WarpX has one release per month.
-In order to create a release, you need to:
-
- 1. Create a new branch from ``development`` and update the version number in all source files.
- There is a script for that, so you can do:
-
- .. code-block:: sh
-
- cd Tools/DevUtils/
- ./update_release.sh # This replaces the old version number with the new one.
-
- Then open a PR, as usual. NOTE: do not merge this PR before step 2 is completed.
-
- 2. Click the ``Draft a new release`` button at https://github.com/ECP-WarpX/WarpX/releases and follow instructions.
- Please specify the compatible versions of dependencies (see previous releases), and provide info on the content of the release.
- In order to get a list of PRs merged since last release, you may run
-
- .. code-block:: sh
-
- git log --since=<date> | grep -A 3 "Author: " | grep -B 1 "\-\-" | sed '/--/d' | sed -e 's/^ /- /'
-
- where ``<date>`` is the date of the last release, say ``2020-05-01`` if the last release was on May 1, 2020.
-
- 3. Optional: create a ``release-<version>`` branch, write a changelog, and backport bug-fixes for a few days.
