Merge branch 'develop' into svn: the same as for commit to r13629 applied to the changes commited in r13628

- remove virtual functions from Component class which are specific for the Cyclotron class, then, in ParallelCyclotronTracker, cast pointers to instances of Component appropriately
- remove unrecognised escape character

    - Additional method ParallelCyclotronTracker::Tracker_MTS
    - If successfully tested, it should replace Tracker_LF
    - Detailed description and sample input file will follow
    - Brief usage guide:
        - Use 'TIMEINTEGRATOR="MTS"' instead of 'TIMEINTEGRATOR="LF-2"'
        - The outer, large step is for integration of space charge, the substeps
          for everything else.
        - Define number of substeps per step with 'Option, MTSSUBSTEPS=10;'.
          This must be an even number >= 2.
        - The input file has to be rewritten in units of the large step, so
          divide STEPSPERTURN, PSDUMPFREQ (and others) by MTSSUBSTEPS to
          maintain similar behaviour.
        - MTSSUBSTEPS and SCSOLVEFREQ both describe the frequency of space
          charge solves compared to the basic step. However, MTSSUBSTEPS
          can be chosen larger while maintaining accuracy. Try it :-)
