Boundary Condition : Interface with existing PML (#1768)

* Read boundary and set periodicity, enumerate BC types, added support for periodic

* separate particle and field boudnary structs

* Update comment for particle struct

* default pml is 0, and reset lo, hi, and do_pml to 1

* turn on pml for MR

* eol

* remove duplication

* resolving commit conflict

* explicitly setting pml_HI_MR

* default pml lo and hi to 0, and set MR pml lo and hi to the domain values if fine patch coincides with domain boundary

* set lo and hi flag for pml when do pml = 1 and domain is non-periodic

* remove commented line

* add doc

* Update Source/Utils/WarpXUtil.cpp

remove empty line

* Apply suggestions from code review

* Update Docs/source/usage/parameters.rst

lower case for input

* add do_pml flags for IonAcc2d and PlasmaMirror

* add pml = true in PICMI for gaussian beam and plasma acceleration

* pml is the default field BC

* adding temporary defaults for field and particle BC using periodicity

* fix temp initialization

* set default to pec if input sets pml to 0

* fix typo

* logic for both old and new pml interface

* fix eol

* change examples to original pml input with default values

* Update Docs/source/usage/parameters.rst
