This PR enables the explicit solver with SI units.
In the explicit solver routine, all quantities are converted to normalized units, the field is solved in normalized units and then it is backtransformed to SI units (if run in SI units).
This can be tested with a script by @MaxThevenet which can be used in the
blowout_wake
example:To do so, all fixed weight calls must be removed from the analysis script.
By doing a more challenging test (increasing the beam density by a factor of 10, giving the beam an initial transverse momentum), normalized units and SI units agree to machine precision.
