I was not looking at the latest version of the code (it seems online 
documentation has not been updated yet). 
Now, I can see that partitioner is used as an argument of 
DMPlexCreatePartition. 
However, there is a new argument: a PetscSF. 
I have two questions about this new implementation: 
1. which partitioner can be used? 
2. how to initialize the new PetscSF argument?
