* Convert Nose-Hoover into LF middle scheme by copying NH kernels

* Rebrand VelocityVerletIntegrator as NoseHooverIntegrator

* Consolidate NH tests

* NoseHooverChainKernel begone

* Make Windows builds happy

* Add missing header for Windows build

* Fix mistake in CommonKernels header

* Add 6th Yoshida-Suzuki and make it the default

Restructured how force and energy computations are done to make it easier to write plugins for the CUDA platform

Optimization: introduced a kernel to clear forces at the start of each time step rather than relying on the stream
