Consolidating worklet tests
- MR 1432 merged
- Why are the executables named Worklet_list_of_devices? Why not follow the UnitTests_vtkm_worklet_testing convention?

- Should there be a simplified way to specify devices on the command line?
- Ken suggested having a vtkm::Initialize method that would consolidate all initialize methods (such as this and InitLogging).
