Summary

Because of the volume fraction modification that takes place in numerical beaches and the geometric-VOF assumptions built into the FreeSurface sampler, things can look pretty crazy there. This enables the user to switch to a linear interpolation approach within a specified length from xhi, smoothing things out.
