PR summary

This new flux limiter uses the same algorithm as the existing flux limiter that prevents small densities, but uses it to prevent large velocities (specifically, larger than riemann_speed_limit). This is useful for situations where large speeds are being generated in low-density material due to a large momentum flux from an adjacent high density zone.
