/** This class propagates {@link org.orekit.orbits.FieldOrbit orbits} using
* numerical integration.
* <p>Numerical propagation is much more accurate than analytical propagation
* like for example {@link org.orekit.propagation.analytical.KeplerianPropagator
* Keplerian} or {@link org.orekit.propagation.analytical.EcksteinHechlerPropagator
* Eckstein-Hechler}, but requires a few more steps to set up to be used properly.
* Whereas analytical propagators are configured only thanks to their various
* constructors and can be used immediately after construction, numerical propagators
* configuration involve setting several parameters between construction time
* and propagation time.</p>
* <p>The configuration parameters that can be set are:</p>
* <ul>
* <li>the initial spacecraft state ({@link #setInitialState(FieldSpacecraftState)})</li>
* <li>the central attraction coefficient ({@link #setMu(CalculusFieldElement)})</li>
* <li>the various force models ({@link #addForceModel(ForceModel)},
* {@link #removeForceModels()})</li>
* <li>the {@link OrbitType type} of orbital parameters to be used for propagation
* ({@link #setOrbitType(OrbitType)}),
* <li>the {@link PositionAngle type} of position angle to be used in orbital parameters
* to be used for propagation where it is relevant ({@link
* #setPositionAngleType(PositionAngle)}),
* <li>whether {@link org.orekit.propagation.integration.FieldAdditionalEquations additional equations}
* should be propagated along with orbital state
* ({@link #addAdditionalEquations(org.orekit.propagation.integration.FieldAdditionalEquations)}),
* <li>the discrete events that should be triggered during propagation
* ({@link #addEventDetector(FieldEventDetector)},
* {@link #clearEventsDetectors()})</li>
* <li>the binding logic with the rest of the application ({@link #getMultiplexer()})</li>
* </ul>
* <p>From these configuration parameters, only the initial state is mandatory. The default
* propagation settings are in {@link OrbitType#EQUINOCTIAL equinoctial} parameters with
* {@link PositionAngle#TRUE true} longitude argument. If the central attraction coefficient
* is not explicitly specified, the one used to define the initial orbit will be used.
* However, specifying only the initial state and perhaps the central attraction coefficient
* would mean the propagator would use only Keplerian forces. In this case, the simpler {@link
* org.orekit.propagation.analytical.KeplerianPropagator KeplerianPropagator} class would
* perhaps be more effective.</p>
* <p>The underlying numerical integrator set up in the constructor may also have its own
* configuration parameters. Typical configuration parameters for adaptive stepsize integrators
* are the min, max and perhaps start step size as well as the absolute and/or relative errors
* thresholds.</p>
* <p>The state that is seen by the integrator is a simple seven elements double array.
* The six first elements are either:
* <ul>
* <li>the {@link org.orekit.orbits.FieldEquinoctialOrbit equinoctial orbit parameters} (a, e<sub>x</sub>,
* e<sub>y</sub>, h<sub>x</sub>, h<sub>y</sub>, λ<sub>M</sub> or λ<sub>E</sub>
* or λ<sub>v</sub>) in meters and radians,</li>
* <li>the {@link org.orekit.orbits.FieldKeplerianOrbit Keplerian orbit parameters} (a, e, i, ω, Ω,
* M or E or v) in meters and radians,</li>
* <li>the {@link org.orekit.orbits.FieldCircularOrbit circular orbit parameters} (a, e<sub>x</sub>, e<sub>y</sub>, i,
* Ω, α<sub>M</sub> or α<sub>E</sub> or α<sub>v</sub>) in meters
* and radians,</li>
* <li>the {@link org.orekit.orbits.FieldCartesianOrbit Cartesian orbit parameters} (x, y, z, v<sub>x</sub>,
* v<sub>y</sub>, v<sub>z</sub>) in meters and meters per seconds.
* </ul>
* The last element is the mass in kilograms.
* <p>The following code snippet shows a typical setting for Low Earth Orbit propagation in
* equinoctial parameters and true longitude argument:</p>
* <pre>
* final T zero = field.getZero();
* final T dP = zero.add(0.001);
* final T minStep = zero.add(0.001);
* final T maxStep = zero.add(500);
* final T initStep = zero.add(60);
* final double[][] tolerance = FieldNumericalPropagator.tolerances(dP, orbit, OrbitType.EQUINOCTIAL);
* AdaptiveStepsizeFieldIntegrator<T> integrator = new DormandPrince853FieldIntegrator<>(field, minStep, maxStep, tolerance[0], tolerance[1]);
* integrator.setInitialStepSize(initStep);
* propagator = new FieldNumericalPropagator<>(field, integrator);
* </pre>
* <p>By default, at the end of the propagation, the propagator resets the initial state to the final state,
* thus allowing a new propagation to be started from there without recomputing the part already performed.
* This behaviour can be chenged by calling {@link #setResetAtEnd(boolean)}.
* </p>
* <p>Beware the same instance cannot be used simultaneously by different threads, the class is <em>not</em>
* thread-safe.</p>
