PetscOptionsSetValue

Sets an option name-value pair in the options database, overriding whatever is already present.

#include "petscsys.h"   
PetscErrorCode PetscOptionsSetValue(PetscOptions options,const char name[],const char value[])

Not Collective, but setting values on certain processors could cause problems for parallel objects looking for options.

	options	- options database, use NULL for the default global database
	name	- name of option, this SHOULD have the - prepended
	value	- the option value (not used for all options, so can be NULL)

This function can be called BEFORE PetscInitialize()

Developers Note: Uses malloc() directly because PETSc may not be initialized yet.
