    + Switch the plane-item widget to use the new display-sized plane widget.
    + Add a coordinate-frame item-widget.
    + Add an "operation" for inspecting meshes.
      The operation does nothing; its parameters will have custom
      widgets that add mesh inspection to the operation panel.
    
    Supporting changes include
    
    + Allow an attribute's association item-widget to be customized.
      Also, make qtAttributeItemInfo accept shared pointers by const reference
      rather than by reference so the main change will compile (which requires
      dynamic shared-pointer downcasting).
    + Add a reference-tree qtItem widget. Combined with the change
      above, this widget provides an alternative to qtReferenceItem
      for attribute association; it takes more screen space but
      provides better visual feedback.
    + Move widgets out of plugin directory.
      The smtkPQOperationViewsPlugin needs to call methods specific
      to pqSMTKPlaneItemWidget which it could not because the class
      was inside a plugin (not a library) and its symbols were not
      exported.
      Move all the widgets into the smtkPQWidgetsExt library and
      export their symbols.
    + Remove unused method `qtBaseAttributeView::requestModelEntityAssociation()`.
    + Extend membership badge to be pickier about applicability.
      The badge configuration may specify a rule and a filter for
      determining which descriptive phrases will display the badge:
    
      + The default rule accepts all phrases while others require
        the subject of the phrase to be an object, component, or
        resource. Additionally, the subject may be required to have
        renderable geometry.
      + A filter, if present, is applied to all components (and only
        components – not resources or other persistent objects)
        that would otherwise be displayed.
    
      The purpose of these configuration options is to accommodate
      operations that wish to pass geometry for several components
      to be processed.
    + Have the resource multiblock source pass all geometry, even
      volume meshes, straight to the output. This will allow ParaView
      filters downstream access to volume data.
    + Provide methods to print view configuration data for debugging.
    + Add a method for property widgets to request a render.
      This is used by the pqSMTKSliceItemWidget to cause a
      render when the slice inputs change.
