Triggered by support for 2D OverFlow problems where 3 y-planes are required for the calculation.

Zone.extract(imin, imax, jmin, jmax, kmin, kmax) returns a new Zone with grid and flow data restricted to the range of interest. This may entail collapsing from a 3D to 2D representation (i.e. extracting a single y-plane from a 3D x,y,z Zone results in a new x,y Zone). Structured zones only.

Zone.extend(direction, delta, count) returns a new Zone with grid and flow data replicated count times in the given direction by delta for each step. Structured zones only.
