Parse tprint Output File about fem HOT 3 OPEN

tprint file in mlp6-thermal branch location examples/thermal is associated with a volume that is 1x1x2cm, with each element having edge lengths of 0.5cm. The simulation ran for 6 seconds with a thermal timestep of 0.01 seconds, but only output to tprint every 0.02 seconds. Using a larger tprint file could be cumbersome to start with, but once a program is written to parse this, we can try it on a full dataset, as well as use the measurement points and nodes data to identify and record only for the desired nodes.

@matthew-huber can you share some example output that can be used to write the data parser?

Great. These files are still a lot smaller than the nodout files that we generate for the mechanical simulations, so we should be good-to-go.
