This merge includes changes necessary to properly couple damage to ice rheology when using stiffnessFactor from an optimization. First, the damage field is initialized as damage = max(1 - stiffnessFactor, 0.0). Then, update stiffnessFactor each timestep using the change in damage, rather than as 1 - damage. The previous coupling method made it so that stiffnessFactor was essentially unused after the first solve, because damage was completely independent of stiffnessFactor and 1.0 was the assumed upper bound. This method allows for stiffnessFactor > 1.0 even with damaged ice.

Previously with damage-rheology coupling there was no stiffnessFactor
constraint on initial damage. Now use damage = (1 - stiffnessFactor)
to initialize.
Need to use domain % blocklist % structs instead of block % structs when
outside loop over blocks.
Because stiffnessFactor is often >1 from the optimization, we need
to update it using change in damage, rather than setting it to 1 - damage,
which previously always resulted in stiffness <1.
Forgot to add Registry to previous commits!
On a restart, just use the damage field in the restart file,
rather than calculating it from stiffnessFactor.
Update halos for damage before applying to stiffnessFactor. Testing
showed imprinting of the decomposition on damage and stiffnessFactor
fields before applying this halo update.
