The field energy is ignored/not used in the tool `plotNumericalHeating`.
This results into a wrong heating plot.

- add usage of `fields_energy.dat`
- fix documentation

The game of life example has a runtime issue that the mapping description verification
to check the number of supercells is always twrowing an error. The reason it that the
not existing default constructor is `MappingDescription` is used.

- create the object for mapping description inside the init method of `Evolution`
- `MappingDescription` remove the default for the parameter `localGridCells`
Allow the PIConGPU user to select the alpaka accelerator `ALPAKA_ACC_CPU_B_SEQ_T_THREADS_ENABLE`.
This accelerator is called in PIConGPU `threads`.

- add `threads` to the `-b` option of `pic-configure`
- update help of `pic-configure`
Deprecation warning in Boost 1.67+

```
include/boost/math/common_factor_rt.hpp:13:93:
  note: #pragma message: This header is deprecated.
  Use <boost/integer/common_factor_rt.hpp> instead.

The workaround disabling template aliases causes compile errors on
Titan (ORNL), both when compiling with CPU backend or CUDA 9.1.85.

Applies the following logic changes:
- only enable when compiling with NVCC for CUDA backend
- only enable when NVCC < 9.1
- NVCC 8.0 known to be broken
- NVCC 9.0 unknown, maybe fixed this already:

If the path to `egetopt` is not in the environment variable `PATH` tbg falls back to use the `egetopt` in the same location as `tbg` itself. In that case the command `which` is throwing a long error message that egetopt can not be found.
This PR hide the error message and create an own error message if needed.
Boost 1.68.0 is not allowed since ComputationalRadiationPhysics#2685 but after we will integrate the next alapak release we will end in compile issues.
The reason is ComputationalRadiationPhysics#2707. The definition of `boost::math::gcd` is not available if `boost/integer/common_factor_rt.hpp` is included.

This PR fixes the behaviour be using always `boost/integer/common_factor_rt.hpp` and use `boost::integer::gcd` within PMacc.
