Fixed bugs and continue GSA plots harmonization

Do not systematically throw an errror message if the parameters in the provided mode_file does not exactly match the set of estimated parameters.

If some parameters are missing in the provided mode_file and if mode_compute>0, use the prior mean as an initial condition.

Bug fix. Force axis tight in @dseries/plot method (otherwise the method crashes if Matlab/octave considers a too large x-abscissa).

Irf restrictions and identification

Fixed bad representation of identification patterns for moment information matrix (and also fixed figure title)
(cherry picked from commit b3c4f942)

1) Define a new type of parameter Random_prior_params, when prior/posterior mean mode do not work and the code searches randomly in the prior space a parameter combination that provides unique saddle path solution;
2) save point estimates in separate file, in order not lose work when subsequent analyses are done for prior/posterior mean/mode etc.
