Great to see this improvement. Q. Where did the reference values used in the test come from?

It always amazes me how slow finite differences are. Reference values are from finite difference of J3 values, gradients, and laplacians. |

If we don't have any other finite difference code left
virtual function needs to be adjusted with const
const ParticleSet& P,
const ParticleSet& source,
In a separate PR.

Proposed changes
For ion gradient, ion gradient of electron gradients, and ion gradients of the Laplacians, all these were originally calculated using finite differences on the ion particle set. This is slow and adds complexity to porting force code to batch. This PR bites the bullet and replaces these with proper analytic gradients.
