+New: ParticleHandler::insert_global_particles() allows one to pass to a ParticleHandler object a vector
 of positions and a vector of properties to insert. Differently from the other insert* methods, 
 this one allows particles to fall within artificial cells. In this case, the method infers who
 should receive the positions and the properties, and sends this information to that process.
-This is useful when constructing particles from non-matching triangulation, where the
-distribution of the particle positions is arbitrary, and possibly not related to our owned cells.
