computing R-squared with gsl_multifit

[Patrick Alken <patrick dot alken at colorado dot edu>]

Hi all,

  This is a continuation of the discussion from help-gsl on
computing the R^2 "coefficient of determination" for multi-parameter
fits. I think it would be a useful thing to have and I propose
that the best way to add it in would be to compute it in
gsl_multifit_linear and gsl_multifit_wlinear and store it in
the gsl_multifit workspace. Then provide a function like
gsl_multifit_linear_Rsq to return the value to the user. This
way we wouldn't need to change the api and the multifit_linear
routines would remain backwards compatible.

  Computing the value would require adding about 4-5 lines of
code and it can be computed at the same time as chisq so there
doesn't have to be an extra loop added in.
