StellarSolver 2.0!

This is a major release of StellarSolver full of many improvements. Some of the biggest are:

  1. Eliminating the last external files: solved and cancel files from the internal solver
  2. Making an interface between the C++ and astrometry.net logging that works well to fix logging issues
  3. Making StellarSolver easier to use in a blocking way, including using it as a C++ temporary object
  4. Making the convolution filter easier to generate and use as well as adding more types of filters
  5. Significantly reducing the astrometry code needed for the solver
  6. Adding support for a new external solver: the Watney Astrometry Solver
  7. Improving the abort code so that it shuts down faster
  8. Adding a number of demos to show how to use StellarSolver
  9. Adding healpix and index series hints so that you can speed up solves in localized areas based on former solves
  10. Making it possible to run two stellar solvers simultaneously
  11. Adding some new options for star extraction
  12. Making API simplifications
  13. Fixing some memory leaks and other warnings on various operating systems
  14. Removing some unused code
