Description

Recent issues on ARM based Mac + the long standing issue where we have to distribute VTK wheels prompted making VTK an optional dependency.

Are you still going to distribute the wheels?

Probably, although VTK are getting better at releasing up to date wheels: https://pypi.org/project/vtk/#history

I am happy with this. @JDBetteridge believes that some bikeshedding/further API thought is required before merging.

I think this is ready, I think I want to kick the "move checkpointing.py into the output directory" can down the road.

This also needs announcing in general before being merged as it has user facing changes
