DMForestGetAdaptivityPurpose

 Get whether the current DM is being adapted from its source (set with DMForestSetAdaptivityForest()) for the purpose of refinement (DM_FOREST_REFINE), coarsening (DM_FOREST_COARSEN), or undefined (DM_FOREST_NONE). This only matters for the purposes of reference counting: during DMDestroy(), cyclic references can be found between DMs only if the cyclic reference is due to a fine/coarse relationship (see DMSetFineDM()/DMSetCoarseDM()). If the purpose is not refinement or coarsening, and the user does not maintain a reference to the post-adaptation forest (i.e., the one created by DMForestTemplate()), then this can cause a memory leak. This method is used by subtypes of DMForest when automatically constructing mesh hierarchies.
