Make sure /usr/gapps/visit/data has the same data across CZ, RZ and SCF #19803

A bunch of files are missing in one or the other place. multi_curv*d.silo is only on the RZ for example.

I made a pass at this a long while ago. It looks like maybe things have fallen into disrepair. Its primarily Silo data.

We do NOT have a specific data tarball for this. Maybe we should.

There are a few datasets that are somewhat unique there such as a very large (>2GB) file with plottable objects in it after the 2G size boundary, an EOS database with a bazillion objects in it (sesame I think) and maybe a couple others.

I would ask that we be sure to also have a mix of Silo/PDB and Silo/HDF5 files so that as developers randomly use various datasets there, we wind up naturally exercising both paths on a regular basis. You can use /usr/gapps/silo/current/$SYS_TYPE/bin/silofile to discover which Silo driver is used.

And, we should include same location on SCF as well.
