        Define curvilinear coordinates for previously defined vector (multivector) space (MV.setup has been run)
        with position vector, x, that is a vector function of the independent coordinates, coords (list of
        sympy variables equal in length to dimension of vector space), and calculate:

            1. Frame (basis) vectors
            2. Normalized frame (basis) vectors.
            3. Metric tensor
            4. Reciprocal frame vectors
            5. Reciprocal metric tensor
            6. Connection multivectors

        The basis vectors are named with the base_name (string) and a subscript derived from the name of each
        coordinate.  So that if the base name is 'e' and the coordinated are [r,theta,z] the variable names
        of the frame vectors would be e_r, e_theta, and e_z.  For LaTeX output the names of the frame vectors
        would be e_{r}, e_{\theta}, and e_{z}.  Everything needed to compute the geometric, outer, and inner
        derivatives of multivector functions in curvilinear coordinates is calculated.

        If debug is True all the quantities in the above list are output in LaTeX format.

        Currently rebase works with cylindrical and spherical coordinates in any dimension.  The limitation is the
        ability to automatically simplify complex sympy expressions generated while calculating the quantities in
        the above list.  This is why the debug option is included.  The debug_level can equal 0,1,2, or 3 and
        determines how far in the list to calculate (input 0 to do the entire list) while debugging.
