A realistic continuous source component

Dear fellow simulators,

For McStas v. 1.5, I have written a new source component for a
continuous source. It models the wavelength distrubution as a sum of 3
Maxwellian distributions, which e.g. fits the PSD cold source very well.
  Other details:

- The shape is cubic (square)
- The sampling is uniform in lambda
- Absolute intensities are used
- Focuses the beam onto a rectangle at a distance (illumination should be
OK)
- PSI parameter values given in comments.

I whish you all good simulations

                     Kim
