!> Module to collect all informations about boundary conditions.
!! author: Jens Zudrop
!!
!! We virtually create a "boundary element" outside each boundary face.
!! They get indices larger than nElems on the respective level.
!! These are then used in the face descriptions to refer to the
!! "outside" element (we put the "boundary element" index into the
!! corresponding leftpos or rightpos of the face with a boundary side).
