Flatten IO variable and attribute storage maps. Replace each two-layer map (and intermediate index) with one direct map. Map directly from the variable name (or attribute name) to the corresponding
Variable<T>
(orAttribute<T>
) instance. Avoid using per-type maps by mapping tounique_ptr<VariableBase>
(orunique_ptr<AttributeBase>
) and statically downcast as needed.This removes several uses of
ADIOS2_FOREACH_*
macros and likely enables removal of many more in future work.
