Support for SVfit algorithm

Jindrich Lidrych requested to merge jlidrych/bamboo:SVFit into master

The analyses with H->tau tau may want to use the SVfit algorithm to reconstruct the Higgs boson mass.

This PR provides an interface for the SVfit algorithm. It introduces two new functions (bamboo.treefunctions.svFitMTT(),bamboo.treefunctions.svFitFastMTT()) and one method (bamboo.analysisutils.configureSVfitCalculator()). The documentation has been updated and contains all the necessary instructions.

The PR is marked as draft. SVfit is used 'only' in H->tau tau analyses, so I am not sure if it is worthy having and supporting this function centrally...

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks to @pmastrap for providing the example.
