Jean-Paul Chaput 8035b31f27 First stage in analog capacitor integration
* Bug: In Technology::getPhysicalRule(), if the named layerdo not exists,
    throw an exception instead of silently putting a NULL pointer inside
    a rule.
* New: In Hurricane/Analog, new parameters classes for capacitor devices:
    - Analog::Matrix, a matrix of null or positives integers to encode
      capacitor matrix matching.
    - Analog::Capacities, a list of float values for all component of a
      multi-capacitor.
* New: In Hurricane::Script, add a "getFileName()" method to get the full
    path name of the Python module.
* Change: In Analog::LayoutGenerator, completly remove the logger utility
    as it is no longer used. Simply print error messages instead.
* Change: In Analog::MetaCapacitor, rename top & bottom plate 'T' & 'B'.
    Accessors renamed in "getTopPlate()" & "getBottomPlate()".
* New: In Analog::MultiCapacitor, complete rewrite. Makes use of the
    new parameters "capacities" and "matrix". Dynamically generates it's
    terminals as we do not know beforehand how many capacitors could be
    put in it.
* Bug: In isobar/PyHurricane.h, in Type object definition, do not prepend
    a "Py" to class name (so the keep the C++ name).
* Change: In CRL/etc/scn6m_deep_09/devices.py, add entry for the new
    capacitor generator.
* New: In oroshi/python/ParamsMatrix, add a "family" entry in the [0,0]
    element to distinguish between transistor, capacitor and resistor.
    (this is the matrix of values returned to the LayoutGenerator after
     device generation).
      Now have one "setGlobalParams()" function per family.
* New: In oroshi/python/Rules.py, added DTR rules needed by capacitors.
    Catch exceptions if something wrong append when we extract the rules
    from the technology.
* New: In Bora, the devices are no longer *only* transistors, so the
    possibles configurations are no longer defined only by a number of
    fingers. We must be able to support any kind of range of configuration.
      So the explicit range of number of fingers is replaced by a base
    class ParameterRange, and it's derived classes:
      - Bora::StepParameterRange, to encode the possible number of fingers
        of a transistor (the former only possibility).
      - Bora::MatrixParameterRange, to encode all the possible matching
        scheme for a capacitor. As there is no way to compress it, this
	is a vector of Matrix (from Analog).
* Change: In Bora::DSlicingNode::_place(), the ParameterRange has to be set
    on the right configuration (through the index) before being called.
      The generation parameters are taken from the active item in the
    ParameterRange.
* Change: In Bora::NodeSets::create(), iterate over the ParameterRange
    to build all the configuration. Adjustement to the routing gauge
    pitchs are moved into the DBoxSet CTOR to save a lot of code.
      Semantic change: the index in the NodeSets is now the index in
    the associated ParameterRange and no longer the number of fingers
    of a transistor.
      Check that the ParameterRange dynamic class is consitent with the
    device family.
* Change: In Bora::DBoxSet, same semantic change as for NodeSets, the
    number of finger become an index in ParameterRange.
      In DBoxSet::create(), now also perform the abutment box adjustement
    to the RoutingGauge, if possible.
* New: In Karakaze/python/AnalogDesign.py, add support for Capacitor
    devices.
