We do not distribute .oct files anymore.

It's actually not needed. The QZ complex decomposition can be obtained in
Octave on real matrices by casting them to the complex type.

(cherry picked from commit f1ed81aae27c2e7e835fd05ea0c3ef1be5f2a299)

They are no longer used in the main codebase.

The new code relies on qz(..., 'real'), ordqz and ordeig, and returns a real
decomposition. The previous version was using Sims' qzdiv and returned a
complex decomposition.

As a consequence, we can drop options_.qzdiv, which was used to detect when
imaginary parts had to be dropped.

This code does not work on Octave for the time being, but this is acceptable
since it is only a fallback.

Works only with the Random Walk Metropolis Hastings algorithm.

Closes #1598

These functions are all included in Octave 4.2.

This breaks the matrix.h of older MATLABs (e.g. R2009a). Also see <uchar.h>.

This API was introduced in MATLAB 9.4 (R2018a), because the internal
representation of complex numbers has changed.

Take into account the API break in the MEX interface (new interleaved complex API).
But do not split MEX directories on MacOS X for the time being.

... Between stoch_simul and check. Added sdim (the number of stable
eigenvalues) and edim (the complementary number of explosive eigenvalues) in dr
structure. The test is always done with sdim (or edim) returned by mjdgges.

This fixes compilation with TeX Live 2018.

We should not issue a warning if version() is greater than supported_octave_version().

Use the histval interface for setting the initial conditions.

Was crashing with three inputs (last one is for innovations) when the first input was an empty array.
