Add spatial database implementation for interpolation via radial basis functions for 2-D and 3-D #1

Add option to use radial basis functions for 2-D and 3-D interpolation. This will allow interpolation from any point cloud.

Compute length scale based on RMS distance to N nearest points? Use user-specified length scale (would not work well for highly variable spacing)?

If we wanted another dependency, we could use PetRBF here.
