Separated Quad_Master library parts from common directory, implemented R0 tracking

[Jenne, Rahul]

With LLO's initial success using the new R0 tracking (LLO alog 50897), we have also put in infrastructure for us to try here at LHO.  This became a somewhat bigger project than we were intending, since there were discrepancies in what we are running versus what is in the SVN for the common library parts.  This has been an ongoing conversation, but today we separated the ETM and ITM Quad_Master library parts by copying them into the h1-specific folder so that we didn't pull in LLO's changes that they've made for 3.3 Hz damping.  Then we made the changes to implement the R0 tracking. 

On Tuesday, we'll do the make-installs, and reboot all 4 quad models.  As LLO did, we must ensure that the gains to these filter banks are OFF before we take the suspension out of SAFE after the model is restarted, so we aren't sending the raw L2 witness channels straight out to the R0 actuators.

LLO has shared with us the filters that they used in LLO alog 50889, so we'll probably use those as a first try for implementing the R0 tracking.  We might need to check if the ITM filters can be the same as the ETM filters, since there are some differences between the ETMs and ITMs.

Then, perhaps with injections (so that we're not reliant on the environment to stay constant), we'd like to check with some on/off tests to see the effect on scattering arches.  Probably we'll ask for some commissioning time Wed AM, after we've got these installed on Tuesday.
