Looks like WarpX's NamedComponentParticleContainer needs an update. AddRealComp(const std::string& name, ...) exists now in AMReX.

I renamed the WarpX functions AddIntComp and AddRealComp, defined in Source/Particles/NamedComponentParticleContainer.H, as NewIntComp and NewRealComp, respectively, in order to avoid confusion with the AMReX functions of the same name, defined in Src/Particle/AMReX_ParticleContainer.H.

Does this look good to you? There are only two instances left where we are directly calling the AMReX functions from WarpX, without wrapping them in WarpX functions.

It's not clear to me whether the goal of recent PRs such as AMReX-Codes/amrex#4163 was to remove the WarpX functions and use directly the AMReX ones.

Also, in WarpX's newly renamed functions NewIntComp and NewRealComp we call the AMReX functions AddIntComp and AddRealComp by passing only the boolean comm flag. I have not changed this in this PR. However, I'm wondering if we are supposed to be passing also the name strings when we call those AMReX functions.

Discussed on Slack:
@atmyers will open a PR to call the new AMReX functions and remove NamedComponentParticleContainer from WarpX.
