Unfortunately the changes in the MPI data type cannot stay like that.
We deliberately kept sc_MPI_INT8_T (see also cburstedde/libsc#166 and cburstedde/libsc#175)
MPI_INT8 is not the same as MPI_BYTE and we should keep it.
Also sc_MPI_LONG_LONG_INT is not sc_MPI_UNSIGNED_LONG_LONG and looses the unsigned information.
These are not in libsc since sc wants to stay backward compatible with old MPI versions.
We do not need this backward compatibility for t8code.
We should discuss a solution.

All these must remain MPI_INT8

Describe your changes here:
This PR updates the libsc submodule to the lastest development containing the necessary fix in libsc's CMake build system to close #1109. Some of libsc's types have been deprecated. As a result, modifications had to be made on parts that relied on these MPI types. I think someone with better experience with the SFC schemes can weigh in whether I made the correct modifications.
Closes #1109
All these boxes must be checked by the reviewers before merging the pull request:
As a reviewer please read through all the code lines and make sure that the code is fully understood, bug free, well-documented and well-structured.
General
The reviewer executed the new code features at least once and checked the results manually
The code follows the t8code coding guidelines
New source/header files are properly added to the Makefiles
The code is well documented
All function declarations, structs/classes and their members have a proper doxygen documentation
All new algorithms and data structures are sufficiently optimal in terms of memory and runtime (If this should be merged, but there is still potential for optimization, create a new issue)
Tests
Github action
The code compiles without warning in debugging and release mode, with and without MPI (this should be executed automatically in a github action)
All tests pass (in various configurations, this should be executed automatically in a github action)
If the Pull request introduces code that is not covered by the github action (for example coupling with a new library):
