Avoid creating matrix for bin plots of workspaces

[Martyn Gigg]

Creating a bin plot from a workspace currently requires a table to be created first.

We currently have MantidMatrixCurve & MantidQwtMatrixWorkspaceData for spectrum plots to avoid creating tables. We need to make them support plotting in either direction.

First cut at using same functions for spectra/bin plots

They'll use a switch that will just change the data source type. Refs #9402

[Martyn Gigg]

Rename MantidQwtMatrixWorkspaceData to QwtWorkspaceSpectrumData

It more accurately describes what it does. Refs #9402

[Martyn Gigg]

Use different data classes for bin/spectrum plotting.

Fix legend item naming to take into account spectrum/bin type.

Flip python plotBin to use new internal plot1D command.

The MantidUI::plotBin function is now not required. Refs #9402

Put back data class assignment operators.

The QwtData base class declares a protected assignment operator but MSVC isn't happy with leaving the compiler to define one so we have to implement one ourselves. Refs #9402

Add a test for the new QwtWorkspaceBinData class

Branch: feature/9402_bin_plots_no_table

Tester: The code surrounding creating spectrum/bin plots from workspaces has been refactored since the only real difference in the two plot types is which axis forms the X axis. This difference can be handled by simply have two separate data sources: one for spectrum plots and one for bin plots.

The refactoring means that as well as testing bin plotting the spectrum plotting should also be tested, both from the right-click menu for the workspaces and using the plotSpectrum command.

The plotBin command has been improved and now functions in a very similar manner to plotSpectrum. It can plot multiple curves without have to create tables and merge other curves onto a single plot.

By my reckoning, MantidUI::createGraphFromSelectedColumns is no longer called anywhere - could you remove it please?

[Martyn Gigg]

Remove unused function.

[Martyn Gigg]

You're right, it was only called by the old bin plotting stuff. It's gone now.

[Russell Taylor]

Attempting to plot any bin index that's greater than the number of histograms in a workspace fails with the message "NNNN is an invalid spectrum index for workspace ws - not plotted".

[Martyn Gigg]

Leave spectrum/bin index checking to respective Data class.

[Martyn Gigg]

That should fix the exception problem.
