Add example3 that uses steady_state_model block to call fsolve

examples/example3.mod

+/*
+ * Example 1 from F. Collard (2001): "Stochastic simulations with DYNARE:
+ * A practical guide" (see "guide.pdf" in the documentation directory).
+ * 
+ * This file uses the steady_state_model-block to provide analytical steady state values.
+ * To do so, the equations of the model have been transformed into a non-linear equation in 
+ * labor h. Within the steady_state_model-block, a helper function is called that uses fsolve
+ * to solve this non-linear equation. The use of the helper function is necessary to avoid 
+ * interference of the Matlab syntax with Dynare's preprocessor. A more complicated alternative 
+ * that provides more flexibility in the type of commands executed and functions called is the use 
+ * of an explicit steady state file. See the NK_baseline.mod in the Examples Folder.
+ * 
+ * This mod-file also shows how to use Dynare's capacities to generate TeX-files of the model equations. 
+ * If you want to see the model equations belonging to this mod-file, run it using Dynare 
+ * and then use a TeX-editor to compile the TeX-files generated.
