[Dune] Major update for dune-alugrid: 2d version now also parallel.

[Andreas Dedner]

Hi Christoph.
Actually I was planning to write this email yesterday to preempt your 
email...

There is a releases/2.3 already which does not have a lot of the 
features but we will simply stick with that I think and then we will 
branch from master to get a releases/2.4 in a few weeks when the 
wrinkles have been ironed out.

master.old is not really a "stable" version - at least I'm not sure what 
exactly is in there and I wouldn't want to maintain it.

If somebody wants all the new features with 2.3 then please send us a 
patch against the master which reverts the few changes made that make it 
not compatible with 2.3 (i.e. ilevelBegin/end on the entity would have 
to be reintroduced I think). So if somebody needs a full features 2.3.1 
release then I'm happy to set up the branch and apply a patch if it is 
send to me. Otherwise we will be focusing on 2.4.
Best
Andreas
