tensorparity=-1 quantities in ReflectionSymmetry

Issue #254 resolved
Roland Haas repo owner created an issue

I would like to suggest applying the attached patch to ReflectionSymmetry to fix (I believe) its handling of the tensorparity attribute.

Explanation/Rationale:

In ReflectionSymmetry/interpolate.c parities[dir] is set to the behaviour under reflection across the "dir"=0 plane of an object of type tensortypealis. It does not take tensorparity into account. Therefore check_dir[dir] must take tensorparity into account explicitly.

The second change is "parity = 1" instead of "parity = tensorparity" which states that if a point is never reflected then the value that was on the grid is to be used as-is.

I have tested these changes with the magnetic field created by a wire along the x,y,z axis and reflection across the various planes and with RotatingSymmetry180 and *90. Please see ticket #149 https://trac.einsteintoolkit.org/ticket/149 for sample parameter files and test scripts.
