Added option nonlinear_filter_initialization.

Default value is 1 (initialization with the ergodic variance of the reduced
form solution of the model approximated at order one).

If the model has unit roots, the user must use `nonlinear_filter_initialization=3`,
which select an identity matrix for the initial covariance matrix of the state variables.

A side effect of this option is to temporarily change the value of options_.qz_criterium to
a value above one (ie 1+1e-6) so that the unit roots are not rejected. If the
model has unit roots and if the and if the option
nonlinear_filter_initialization has a value less than 3, the evaluation of the
likelihood will fail, because by default the unit root is counted as an
unstable root.
