    Efficiency & Cosmetic  changes related to the design  of bayestopt_ and
    the computation of the prior density.
    
    bayestopt_.p1 is always the prior mean
    bayestopt_.p2 is always the prior standard deviation
    bayestopt_.p3 is unchanged
    bayestopt_.p4 is unchanged
    bayestopt_.p5 [new field] is the prior mode
    bayestopt_.p6 [new field] is the first hyper-parameter of the prior density
    bayestopt_.p7 [new field] is the second hyper-parameter of the prior density
     
    These fields are defined in  set_prior and are never changed after. In
    the previous version of Dynare,  the hyper parameters of the densities
    were  updated at  each iteration  of the  optimization routine  or the
    metropolis.
    
    Removed fields pmean and pstdev.
    
    Vectorized the code in priordens.
    
    Fixed the bug mentionned by Gianni. If a (logged) density is evaluated
    outside the  prior domain, the  output of priordens if  minus infinity
    (instead of a complex number).
