High bandwidth BS WFS
Kiwamu, Stefan

Tonight we copied the BS OPLEV filters to the BS M2 LOCK pitch and yaw filters, and modified them slightly to get some moderate DC gain on top of a significant suppression at the optics resonances.
 - The modification we made is
   PIT and YAW: FM1: zpk([0],[100],1,"n") was replaced with zpk([0.1;0.1],[4000;100],0.2,"n") . Together with the WFS filter bank (a simple 1/f integrator) this results in very weak DC feed-back.
   PIT: We added a 1.2Hz resonance peak compensation and a p0.1:z1.5 low frequency boost to FM10:
      zpk([0.02+i*1.2;0.02-i*1.2],[0.200028+i*1.18338;0.200028-i*1.18338],1,"n")* zpk([1.5],[0.1],15,"n")
   The results in a reasonable secondary UGF crossing.

Pitch was tested, and resulted in a unconditionally stable loop.
Yaw wasn't tested yet. A snapshot of the engaged filters is attached.

Also, from this morning's lock, here are some WFS signals that show clearly what is running away.

REFL_B_RF9_I seems to be the prime candidate.
