Some very minor conflicts came up and were easily corrected. They were
mostly in parts that are also shared with the demonstration in the core
Maneage branch.

Until now, the dataset's configuration names had a 'WFPC2' prefix. But this
very alien to anyone that is not familiar with the history of the Hubble
Space Telescope (the camera is no longer used! Its just used here since its
one of the standard FITS files from the FITS standard webpage).
With this commit the variable names have been modified to be more readable
and clear (having a 'DEMO-' prefix). Also the comments of 'INPUTS.conf'
(describing the purpose of each variable) were edited and made more clear.

As described in Maneage's commit 2bd2e2f18 (which I found while testing
this project), the existing download recipe had problems when using a local
copy of the input dataset. It was first fixed here, then implemented there.
Also, to clarify things for a new user, some long comments were added at
the top of 'INPUTS.conf' to describe each of the variables, that comment
has also been put here (and is also in commit 2bd2e2f18 of Maneage).

Summary of possible semantic conflicts
1. The recipe to download input datasets has been modified. You have to
re-set the old 'origname' variable to 'localname' (to avoid confusion)
and the default dataset URL should now be complete (including the
actual filename). See the newly added descriptions in 'INPUTS.conf' for
more on this.
Until now, when the dataset was already present on the host system, a link
couldn't be made to it, causing the project to crash in the checksum
phase. This has been fixed with properly naming the main variable as
'localname' to avoid the confusion that caused it.
Some other problems have been fixed in this recipe in the meantime:
- When the checksum is different, the expected and calculated checksums
are printed.
- In the default paper, we now print the full URL of the dataset, not just
the server, so the checksum of the 'download.tex' step has been updated.

With this commit a description of these two important parts have been added
to the project, along with several figures showing various parts of the
files that are discussed. I also done some other restructuring of the
figures and files to make things fit better into the the description of the
paper.

Until now, the configuration Makefiles (in
`reproduce/software/config/installation' and `reproduce/analysis/config')
had a `.mk' suffix, similar to the workhorse Makefiles. Although they are
indeed Makefiles, but given their nature (to only keep configuration
parameters), it is confusing (especially to early users) for them to also
have a `.mk' (similar to the analysis or software building Makefiles).
To address this issue, with this commit, all the configuration Makefiles
(in those directories) are now given a `.conf' suffix. This is also assumed
for all the files that are loaded.
The configuration (software building) and running of the template have been
checked with this change from scratch, but please report any error that may
not have been noticed.
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT CHANGE AND WILL CAUSE CRASHES OR UNEXPECTED BEHAVIORS
FOR PROJECTS THAT HAVE BRANCHED FROM THIS TEMPLATE. PLEASE CORRECT THE
SUFFIX OF ALL YOUR PROJECT'S CONFIGURATION MAKEFILES (IN THE DIRECTORIES
ABOVE), OTHERWISE THEY AREN'T AUTOMATICALLY LOADED ANYMORE.
