Incorporates the new waveforms interface.
Support calling C and python waveform models from C and python clients.
The standard functions XLALSimInspiralChooseFD(TD)Waveform and XLALSimInspiralChooseFD(TD)Modes remain backwards compatible.
New C functions have been added XLALSimInspiralGenerateFD(TD)Waveform(Modes)
which replicate the old ones and support a more flexible input of the parameters. Equivalent functions exist for the python interface.
The LALSuite build system has been modified to support embedded python.
See here for a brief introduction on the new waveforms interface.
If any of the Backwards Incompatible check boxes are ticked please provide a justification why this change is necessary and why it needs to be done in a backwards incompatible way.
