Paper's title and author information moved to main paper.tex
Until now, the paper's title and author information were set it `tex/src/preamble-header.tex'. But they are actually shown in the final PDF paper and a much better place to keep them is the top-level `paper.tex'. With this commit, the setting of the title and author names has been moved to `paper.tex', just after importing all the preambles. However, the basic package importation and low-level settings are still set in `tex/src/preamble-header.tex', because they are relatively low-level. This task was suggested by Deepak (Indian Institute of Astrophysics).
