for Octave 4.0.0

Lower tolerance for unit tests/irfs/example1_unit_std.mod

Otherwise, Octave complains

and lags on more than one period: All variables different from zero
must be declared in histval. The reference simulation has one lag
because of k(-1).

variables as for endogenous ones. Closes issue #617.

Initialize M_.dname=M_.fname in global_initialization.m

Closes #979

Add missing return statement to evaluate_steady_state_file.m

Bugfixes related to collect_LaTeX_Files.m

Add check whether bayestopt_ is empty

Prior distributions

Add info on allowed variable names to manual

In debugging modus, provide termination values of steady state finding.

Add headers and more documentation to shock_decomposition.m and graph…

Otherwise, the code will subsequently crash if the steady state file does not return a conformably sized vector, although an error code was returned

While this code is never actually used, we return the prior mean, which is directly given by the first hyperparameter.

- deals with potentially unset M_.dname
- loads missing float package
- prevents crash when longnames is not used

Otherwise crashes for calibrated smoother occur

Follows the logic for all other distributions

In case of bound violations, it was instead sampled from inverse gamma I

Performs check as for generalized beta distribution

Closes #341

Closes #3

Correct case-sensitive spelling in unit tests that stops testsuite in…
