fc32d53828 quaternion/septernion: Added multi- quaternion/septernion averaging
Using method based on
http://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/20070017872.pdf
but simplified for the case where the quaternions are similar.

6a5d5e903e septernion: Changed definition of the forward transformation for consistency with spatialTransform
inline Foam::vector Foam::septernion::transformPoint(const vector& v) const
{
    return r().transform(v - t());
}

Now there is a 1:1 correspondence between septernion and
spatialTransform and a septernion constructor from spatialTransform
provided.

Additionally "septernion::transform" has been renamed
"septernion::transformPoint" to clarify that it transforms coordinate
points rather than displacements or other relative vectors.

dbe5d5288b quaternion: Added generalized construction from and conversion to Euler-angles
The particular rotation sequence is specified via the enumeration:

    //- Euler-angle rotation sequence
    enum rotationSequence
    {
        ZYX, ZYZ, ZXY, ZXZ, YXZ, YXY, YZX, YZY, XYZ, XYX, XZY, XZX
    };

and provided as an argument to the constructor from Euler-angles

    //- Construct a quaternion given the three Euler angles:
    inline quaternion
    (
        const rotationSequence rs,
        const vector& angles
    );

and conversion to Euler-angles:

    //- Return a vector of euler angles corresponding to the
    //  specified rotation sequence
    inline vector eulerAngles(const rotationSequence rs) const;
