Further work on error bars

Description

Error bars can now be customised, but for Mantid curves this can only be done from Python, not from the plot dialog. It seems a pity (in more ways than just this) that apparently no regard was made to how QtiPlot does error bars when the ability was added to show Mantid error bars, because if it had been done in a similar way (having a separate curve for the error bars) customisation options would have appeared in the dialog 'for free'.

The following should be looked at:

  • Modifying Mantid error bar characteristics from the plot dialog.
  • Showing X errors.
  • The ability to add custom errors (e.g. % or from a table) to Mantid Curves (at the moment only the workspace errors can be attached to the curve unless it's first exported to a table).
  • Pulling in improvements made in today's QtiPlot to the way error bars are drawn (see the QwtErrorPlotCurve class, now called ErrorBarsCurve in QtiPlot).

Move the tickets I'm definitely not going to do this iteration so that I can better see the ones that I might.

Orphaning tickets that I won't have time to look at.
