Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
Lot of things can be const which makes the interface
a bit more legible and safe to use - lots of things are
accessing pointers that if they changed, would have wierd
and unpredicatable effects.
Probably of minor concern in practice, but a lot of strings
and vectors are being copied when they don't have to be.
Very crude profiling indicates this could save 30-50% of the time in
KIBIS::KIBIS after ParseFile, but this is incidental to
clarifying the API of the classes.
Report is const as it doesn't change the logical state of the
IBIS_ANY object (if m_reporter were a ref, it'd be mutable).
If a T* isn't null-checked inside a function, pass as ref
to show that the function expects and requires non-nullity.
Adds REPORTER::HasMessageOfSeverity for WX_STRING_REPORTER,
which allows us to show simulation warnings and fail only if there's errors.
Also fixes a crash when SPICE_GENERATOR_KIBIS throws an IO_ERROR.

Saves about 30% of the time to open the sim model
dialog. Pretty much all the remaining time is in PEGTL,
and that's even with short-circuiting it for most param
values.
