Fixed bug in the initialization of the metropolis when mode_compute=6 was previously used (so that we have an optimal mh scale factor)
and option load_mh_file is used. After the (stochastic) optimization, the optimal value of the scale parameter is saved in a mat file.

2) fixed bug in sync of sequence of files sent to remote slaves;

C++ Estimation DLL: Update of logMHMCMCposterior and auxiliary files: added progress bar and recovery from file and tied up few loose ends - still unstable !

dr1.m: move up error message for purely forward models, otherwise it is not displayed with k_order_perturbation

2) fixed bug with logic of islocal;
3) better cleanup of remnants;
4) fixed bug with sending and DELETING P*End.txt files;

- Extends the algorithms compatible with bytecode to compute the  steady-state (ticket #11). The new values for solve_algo are:
   * 0: fsolve
   * 1: solve1
   * 2, 4: solve1 + block decomposition
   * 3: csolve
   * 5: LU decomposition with UMFPack (method handling sparse matrix in Matlab)
   * 6: GMRES
   * 7: BiCGStab
   * 8: bytecode own solver (use Gaussian elimination + sparse matrix)

- Bytecode can now evaluate a specific block instead of the overall blocks (new bytecode's option 'Block = block_number')

- extends the error messages in mex_interface (necessary to emulate the mex functions in a standalone mode for debugging purposes)

- adds bytecode_debug.m m-file to save the global variables. Necessary to run bytecode in a standalone mode for debugging purposes.

Moved qzdiv.m and qzswitch.m to top-level (they are now used by both partial information code and mjdgges.m)

in unused model local variables

non-stationary

Fix bug in the output of stoch_simul: in the presence of non-stationary variables, and when selecting only a subset of variables for the output, the "NaN"s in the "mean" column where wrongly placed
