Description

Should be able to set a current instead of a current density in solenoid.

Interface could be either:

PropertyDouble Current Set the power supply current
PropertyInt NumberOfTurns Set the number of turns in the coil

or

PropertyDouble Current Set the power supply current
PropertyInt NumberOfTurnsPerPlane Set the number of turns in each plane of the coil
PropertyInt NumberOfPlanes Set the number of turns in the coil

I would rather not do both; the latter control might enable better models downstream (not homgeneous fields, if that is an issue). If no one complains I will just do something sensible.
