Added support for extra resistor rules in Hurricane::Technology.

* New: In BasicLayer::Material, added "info" kind of material for layers
    that are only informationals (i.e. not real GDS one). Created to
    store geometric combination of layers, this is a temporary solution.
      Have to define a clearer semantic for that.
* New: In CRL/helpers/AnalogTechno.py, new "Count" type for count numbers
    that must not go through DbU::Unit converter. They are plain integers,
    but stored in DbU::Unit (keeping track of that semantic is left to
    the user).
