/** \brief StepperExplicitRKObserver class for StepperExplicitRK.
 *
 * This is a means for application developers to perform tasks
 * during the time steps, e.g.,
 *   - Compute specific quantities
 *   - Output information
 *   - "Massage" the working solution state
 *   - ...
 *
 * <b>Design Considerations</b>
 *   - StepperExplicitRKObserver is not stateless!  Developers may touch the
 *     solution state!  Developers need to be careful not to break the
 *     restart (checkpoint) capability.
