3d38890aaf Merge branch 'master' into csharp.
Includes coordinate transform logic support in
C, JavaScript, and Python.
Will start porting to C# soon.

330b8447f3 Fixed #57 - Finished preamble for Python documentation.
Python documention: corrected internal links in Markdown prefix.
This concludes support for Python documentation fixes.

fce1468a1c Fixed #55 - Python documentation internal links translated to Markdown.
pydown.py now searches description text for internal links
and expands them properly for Markdown file README.md.
For example:  "#Body" ==> "[`Body`](#Body)".
Fixed a couple of incorrect "Astronomy_..." names in Python docs.

7040ff8684 Cleaned up documented return types for Python functions.
Never use pound-signs inside documentation for Python return types.
Automatically create internal link just like for function parameter types.
Added special case logic in pydown.py for "Time or `None`".
Fixed minor documentation mistakes in JS version.

69463e04cf Python/Windows: added rotation and refraction unit tests.
Also had to adjust a couple of error thresholds.
Windows version of Python calculates slightly different
numbers than Linux version. Perhaps a difference in
runtime libraries?

e168f37ac5 Python: Finished rotation logic and unit tests.
I thought I had finished the rotation functions last time,
but I missed a couple of them. Finishing the unit tests
revealed that, thankfully.

23315375cf Increased error thresholds in ctest.c for Microsoft C.
The Microsoft C compiler/runtime for Windows is generating
slightly larger floating point discrepancies in the unit
tests. Adjusted the thresholds upward so all the tests pass
in Windows also.

Don Cross
e7d8804bf1 C: Eliminated duplicate code - nutation() is based on nutation_rot().
Instead of having the same calculations duplicated in both
nutation() and nutation_rot(), I reworked nutation() in terms of
nutation_rot(). Use nutation_rot() to calculate the rotation matrix,
then multiply that matrix by the input vector to produce the output vector.

52db7cd898 Fixing travis-ci build error: looks like they changed gcc-6.
The gcc-6 compiler in travis-ci has changed its behavior.
It is warning that 'fmid' local variable in Search() may
be used uninitialized. I believe it is safe but I'm adding
an initialization to fmid to make the warning go away.

c008dcdff6 Finished C demo program horizon.c.
This program demonstrates converting ecliptic coordinates
to horizontal coordinates at a given time for a given observer.
It searches for the two locations on the horizon where the
ecliptic plane intersects it.

824792004d Starting to work on inverse function for refraction calculation.
I need a way to undo a refraction correction:
given a post-refraction altitude, find the unrefracted
altitude that leads to it. Starting to write the code.
Not finished yet.

cycles of transitive rotation are consistent.
