Restructure binary packages

Duncan Macleod requested to merge duncanmmacleod/lalsuite:package-restructure-2 into master

Description

This MR closes #296 (closed) by restructuring the binary packages for each subpackage of LALSuite by splitting off the shared object libraries into their own packages and reorganising the main lalxxx package to depend upon both the liblalxxx package(s) and the python(2)-lalxxx package.

I am trying to make all of the necessary modifications to the packaging files to make this a smooth transition. This should make a (near) future transition to python3 fairly painless.
