Make a user interface to mask detectors using the excitations group algorithms

[Steve Williams]

First use the generic dialog box from a dummy algorithm to input the parameters

estimate 0.5 days

Then create a custom form

estimate 1 day

to be ready for the meeting on Friday

[Steve Williams]

I've started making a simple user interface with the dummy algorthim and perhaps that is on schedule, complete 24 July

(In [2995]) The script to find badly performing detectors is complete, including examination of the background of experimental runs. There's also a custom dialog box for entering parameters to the script. refs #769 closes #602

(In [3014]) ADS and other DataService searches are now case insensitive although the names are stored in lower and upper case, the case used the first time you add the name is retained even if you write to the same name with a different pattern of upper and lower case letters. Matlab workspaces2D workspaces are now supported. Some bug fixes to finding bad detectors. refs #733 and #769 and #590

(In [3134]) Algorithms that find badly performing detectors have been changed to deal better with missing detector information refs #769
