SAS model constructor.

Small angle scattering models are defined by a set of kernel functions:

    *Iq(q, p1, p2, ...)* returns the scattering at q for a form with
    particular dimensions averaged over all orientations.

    *Iqxy(qx, qy, p1, p2, ...)* returns the scattering at qx, qy for a form
    with particular dimensions for a single orientation.

    *Imagnetic(qx, qy, result[], p1, p2, ...)* returns the scattering for the
    polarized neutron spin states (up-up, up-down, down-up, down-down) for
    a form with particular dimensions for a single orientation.

    *form_volume(p1, p2, ...)* returns the volume of the form with particular
    dimension.

    *ER(p1, p2, ...)* returns the effective radius of the form with
    particular dimensions.

    *VR(p1, p2, ...)* returns the volume ratio for core-shell style forms.

    #define INVALID(v) (expr)  returns False if v.parameter is invalid
    for some parameter or other (e.g., v.bell_radius < v.radius).  If
    necessary, the expression can call a function.

These functions are defined in a kernel module .py script and an associated
set of .c files.  The model constructor will use them to create models with
polydispersity across volume and orientation parameters, and provide
scale and background parameters for each model.

*Iq*, *Iqxy*, *Imagnetic* and *form_volume* should be stylized C-99
functions written for OpenCL.  All functions need prototype declarations
even if the are defined before they are used.  OpenCL does not support
*#include* preprocessor directives, so instead the list of includes needs
to be given as part of the metadata in the kernel module definition.
The included files should be listed using a path relative to the kernel
module, or if using "lib/file.c" if it is one of the standard includes
provided with the sasmodels source.  The includes need to be listed in
order so that functions are defined before they are used.

Floating point values should be declared as *double*.  For single precision
calculations, *double* will be replaced by *float*.  The single precision
conversion will also tag floating point constants with "f" to make them
single precision constants.  When using integral values in floating point
expressions, they should be expressed as floating point values by including
a decimal point.  This includes 0., 1. and 2.

OpenCL has a *sincos* function which can improve performance when both
the *sin* and *cos* values are needed for a particular argument.  Since
this function does not exist in C99, all use of *sincos* should be
replaced by the macro *SINCOS(value, sn, cn)* where *sn* and *cn* are
previously declared *double* variables.  When compiled for systems without
OpenCL, *SINCOS* will be replaced by *sin* and *cos* calls.   If *value* is
an expression, it will appear twice in this case; whether or not it will be
evaluated twice depends on the quality of the compiler.

If the input parameters are invalid, the scattering calculator should
return a negative number. Particularly with polydispersity, there are
some sets of shape parameters which lead to nonsensical forms, such
as a capped cylinder where the cap radius is smaller than the
cylinder radius.  The polydispersity calculation will ignore these points,
effectively chopping the parameter weight distributions at the boundary
of the infeasible region.  The resulting scattering will be set to
background.  This will work correctly even when polydispersity is off.

*ER* and *VR* are python functions which operate on parameter vectors.
The constructor code will generate the necessary vectors for computing
them with the desired polydispersity.
The kernel module must set variables defining the kernel meta data:

    *id* is an implicit variable formed from the filename.  It will be
    a valid python identifier, and will be used as the reference into
    the html documentation, with '_' replaced by '-'.

    *name* is the model name as displayed to the user.  If it is missing,
    it will be constructed from the id.

    *title* is a short description of the model, suitable for a tool tip,
    or a one line model summary in a table of models.

    *description* is an extended description of the model to be displayed
    while the model parameters are being edited.

    *parameters* is the list of parameters.  Parameters in the kernel
    functions must appear in the same order as they appear in the
    parameters list.  Two additional parameters, *scale* and *background*
    are added to the beginning of the parameter list.  They will show up
    in the documentation as model parameters, but they are never sent to
    the kernel functions.  Note that *effect_radius* and *volfraction*
    must occur first in structure factor calculations.

    *category* is the default category for the model.  The category is
    two level structure, with the form "group:section", indicating where
    in the manual the model will be located.  Models are alphabetical
    within their section.

    *source* is the list of C-99 source files that must be joined to
    create the OpenCL kernel functions.  The files defining the functions
    need to be listed before the files which use the functions.

    *ER* is a python function defining the effective radius.  If it is
    not present, the effective radius is 0.

    *VR* is a python function defining the volume ratio.  If it is not
    present, the volume ratio is 1.

    *form_volume*, *Iq*, *Iqxy*, *Imagnetic* are strings containing the
    C source code for the body of the volume, Iq, and Iqxy functions
    respectively.  These can also be defined in the last source file.

    *Iq* and *Iqxy* also be instead be python functions defining the
    kernel.  If they are marked as *Iq.vectorized = True* then the
    kernel is passed the entire *q* vector at once, otherwise it is
    passed values one *q* at a time.  The performance improvement of
    this step is significant.

    *demo* is a dictionary of parameter=value defining a set of
    parameters to use by default when *compare* is called.  Any
    parameter not set in *demo* gets the initial value from the
    parameter list.  *demo* is mostly needed to set the default
    polydispersity values for tests.

    *oldname* is the name of the model in sasview before sasmodels
    was split into its own package, and *oldpars* is a dictionary
    of *parameter: old_parameter* pairs defining the new names for
    the parameters.  This is used by *compare* to check the values
    of the new model against the values of the old model before
    you are ready to add the new model to sasmodels.


An *model_info* dictionary is constructed from the kernel meta data and
returned to the caller.

The model evaluator, function call sequence consists of q inputs and the return vector,
followed by the loop value/weight vector, followed by the values for
the non-polydisperse parameters, followed by the lengths of the
polydispersity loops.  To construct the call for 1D models, the
categories *fixed-1d* and *pd-1d* list the names of the parameters
of the non-polydisperse and the polydisperse parameters respectively.
Similarly, *fixed-2d* and *pd-2d* provide parameter names for 2D models.
The *pd-rel* category is a set of those parameters which give
polydispersitiy as a portion of the value (so a 10% length dispersity
would use a polydispersity value of 0.1) rather than absolute
dispersity such as an angle plus or minus 15 degrees.

The *volume* category lists the volume parameters in order for calls
to volume within the kernel (used for volume normalization) and for
calls to ER and VR for effective radius and volume ratio respectively.

The *orientation* and *magnetic* categories list the orientation and
magnetic parameters.  These are used by the sasview interface.  The
blank category is for parameters such as scale which don't have any
other marking.

The doc string at the start of the kernel module will be used to
construct the model documentation web pages.  Embedded figures should
appear in the subdirectory "img" beside the model definition, and tagged
with the kernel module name to avoid collision with other models.  Some
file systems are case-sensitive, so only use lower case characters for
file names and extensions.


The function :func:`make` loads the metadata from the module and returns
the kernel source.  The function :func:`make_doc` extracts the doc string
and adds the parameter table to the top.  The function :func:`model_sources`
returns a list of files required by the model.

Code follows the C99 standard with the following extensions and conditions::

    M_PI_180 = pi/180
    M_4PI_3 = 4pi/3
    square(x) = x*x
    cube(x) = x*x*x
    sinc(x) = sin(x)/x, with sin(0)/0 -> 1
    all double precision constants must include the decimal point
    all double declarations may be converted to half, float, or long double
    FLOAT_SIZE is the number of bytes in the converted variables

    know which module you need, or with __import__('sasmodels.model.'+name)

    The *model_info* structure contains the following fields:

    * *id* is the id of the kernel
    * *name* is the display name of the kernel
    * *filename* is the full path to the module defining the file (if any)
    * *title* is a short description of the kernel
    * *description* is a long description of the kernel (this doesn't seem
      very useful since the Help button on the model page brings you directly
      to the documentation page)
    * *docs* is the docstring from the module.  Use :func:`make_doc` to
    * *category* specifies the model location in the docs
    * *parameters* is the model parameter table
    * *single* is True if the model allows single precision
    * *structure_factor* is True if the model is useable in a product
    * *variant_info* contains the information required to select between
      model variants (e.g., the list of cases) or is None if there are no
      model variants
    * *par_type* categorizes the model parameters. See
      :func:`categorize_parameters` for details.
    * *demo* contains the *{parameter: value}* map used in compare (and maybe
      for the demo plot, if plots aren't set up to use the default values).
      If *demo* is not given in the file, then the default values will be used.
    * *tests* is a set of tests that must pass
    * *source* is the list of library files to include in the C model build
    * *Iq*, *Iqxy*, *form_volume*, *ER*, *VR* and *sesans* are python functions
      implementing the kernel for the module, or None if they are not
      defined in python
    * *oldname* is the model name in pre-4.0 Sasview
    * *oldpars* is the *{new: old}* parameter translation table
      from pre-4.0 Sasview
    * *composition* is None if the model is independent, otherwise it is a
      tuple with composition type ('product' or 'mixture') and a list of
      *model_info* blocks for the composition objects.  This allows us to
      build complete product and mixture models from just the info.
    * *max_pd* is the max polydispersity dimension.  This is constant and
      should not be reset.  You may be able to change it when the program
      starts by setting *sasmodels.generate.MAX_PD*.
