      Fixed many const arguments
      Changed MatCreate() to only take a communicator
       - Added MatSetSizes()
      Changed SNESSolve() to accept a constant argument
       - This should allow SNES to look almost like KSP
      Added Options methods, SetUp(), and View() and objects which lacked them
