Residual for refined mesh is assembled incorrectly

[baagaard-usgs]

Describe the bug

Refinement appears to be working for simulations without faults. However, the residual is wrong for refinement in simulations with a fault. The PyLith Jacobian looks correct but the finite-difference Jacobian does not; this is consistent with the residual being wrong. I don't see anything wrong in the topology or the labels. My wild guess is that we are taking the wrong path in the code when assembling the residual for a hybrid cell for the Lagrange multiplier field.

Update: Originally I thought the bug was only associated with meshes from Gmsh, but this does not appear to be the case as the same ASCII mesh also generates the error.

This fix resolves the issue.

• [ ] Finish adding refinement tests in tests/fullscale/linearelasticity/faults-2d
• [ ] Add static C++ method in MeshOps.cc for computing the centroid of a cell
• [ ] Update MMS tests to include refinement in tests/mmstests/linearelasticity/faults-2d
