Additional changes to C++ CARFAC on the basis of ronw's comments on r289. Moved CARFAC::Design to CARFAC::CARFAC and CARFAC::Reset(), moved carfac_common.h to common.h, CARFACDetect to carfac_util.h/cc, FloatArray and Float2dArray to ArrayX and ArrayXX, improved variable naming, made a start on improved commenting documentation.
