Until now, the software building and analysis steps of the pipeline were
intertwined. However, these steps (of how to build a software, and how to
use it) are logically completely independent.

Therefore with this commit, the pipeline now has a new architecture
(particularly in the `reproduce' directory) to emphasize this distinction:
The `reproduce' directory now has the two `software' and `analysis'
subdirectories and the respective parts of the previous architecture have
been broken up between these two based on their function. There is also no
more `src' directory. The `config' directory for software and analysis is
now mixed with the language-specific directories.

Also, some of the software versions were also updated after some checks
with their webpages.

This new architecture will allow much more focused work on each part of the
pipeline (to install the software and to run them for an analysis).

All occurances of "pipeline" have been chanaged to "project" or "template"
withint the text (comments, READMEs, and comments) of the template. The
main template branch is now also named `template'.

This was all because `pipeline' is too generic and couldn't be
distinguished from the base, and customized project.

Until now, the files where the people were meant to change didn't have a
proper copyright notice (for example `Copyright (C) YOUR NAME.'). This was
wrong because the license does not convey copyright ownership. So the name
of the file's original author must always be included and when people
modify it (and add their own copyright-able modifications).

With this commit, the file's original author (and email) are added to the
copyright notice and when more than one person modified a file, both names
have their individual copyright notice.

Based on this, the description for adding a copyright notice in
`README-hacking.md' has also been modified.

<title>Gnuastro's special BuildProgram configuration file added</title>

Gnuastro's BuildProgram is a little special: it is actually built during
the building of Gnuastro to keep important include and lib directory
information and if someone wants to use BuildProgram, this information is
necessary. So a special configuration is added for it in
`reproduce/config/gnuastro'. This configuration file will allow users to
set their own special configuration if they like, then it will load the
installed BuildProgram configuration file.

<title>Pipeline now downloads and uses an input dataset</title>

In most analysis situations (except for simulations), an input dataset is
necessary, but that part of the pipeline was just left out and a general
`SURVEY' variable was set and never used. So with this commit, we actually
use a sample FITS file from the FITS standard webpage, show it (as well as
its histogram) and do some basic calculations on it.

This preparation of the input datasets is done in a generic way to enable
easy addition of more datasets if necessary.

<title>Version of programs checked on each run of pipeline</title>

The version of all programs is now checked in
`reproduce/make/src/initialize.mk' and the pipeline won't complete if any
of the program versions change from those listed in
`reproduce/config/pipeline/dependency-versions.mk'.

Since the pipeline is systematically checking all program versions, we
don't need Gnuastro's `--onlyversion' option any more. So it (and all
references to it) have been removed.

As described in the commens above `MINMAPSIZE' of `LOCAL.mk.in', the amount
of memory to map to HDD/SSD or keep in RAM is a local issue and not
relevant to the pipeline's results. So it is now defined in a
`gnuastro-local.conf' file.

To keep the Makefiles clean, this file is created by the `./configure'
script. To do this cleanly, the `./configure' script was also almost fully
re-written with better functionality now.
