Better averaging for analysis data modules.
Added an AnalysisDataFrameAverager for functionality common to analysis
data modules that compute averages over frames. Currently, it only
accumulates the average and variance in double precision (using better
formula than before), but provides a useful base for implementing other
functionality:
- Block averaging or other methods of better estimating the error.
- Parallelization support to allow these modules to work in parallel
after #869 is implemented.
For all of these, after the implementation is done in this common class,
it is easy to have that functionality in all the modules. Some
interface changes may be required for some of the above, though.
Also some improvements to AnalysisDataAverageModule documentation.
