Modified PitRemove algorithm to only update neighbors of points that have changed. Old algorithm would check every point that not had all water removed on every pass, which was very slow for large input DEMs with large pit areas. New algorithm uses a priority queue to order updates by lowest filled elevation, which for a serial run will update each point only once, and is better for parallel runs also.
