	* gsl_siman.h, siman.c, siman_test.c, siman_tsp.c, test.c: changed
	the siman_solve API to allow for more general search spaces.  The
	problem was that we assumed that points in the search space were
	data structures that were allocated in continguous memory, so they
	could not be linked structures.  I replaced the malloc(), memcpy()
	and free() calls with copy_constructor(), copyfunc() and
	copy_destructor() functions.  The user passes these functions,
	which means that siman_solve() now takes three more arguments of
	type gsl_siman_copy_t, gsl_siman_copy_construct_t and
	gsl_siman_destroy_t.  If these arguments are NULL (and all three
	of them have to be NULL together), the traditional memcpy()
	approach is used.
