Fix potential deadlock in distributed contour tree
The HierarchicalAugmenter
used in the distributed contour tree filter
attempts to save memory by releasing buffers used to send and receive
data after the DIY enqueues and dequeues are posted. This works as long
as the DIY serialization process copies the data in the arrays. However,
changes are coming where the data is sent directly from the buffers.
These changes cause a deadlock because the enqueue places a read lock
until the data is sent while the release tried to get a write lock.
The solution is simply to "forget" the array rather than explicitly delete it. In this case, the array will automatically be deleted once everyone is done with it.
Fixes a deadlock that popped up in !2987 (merged). Regardless of what eventually happens to those changes, this MR improves the safety of the code without negatively impacting the performance.
